Temporary Protected Status, Exception to Registration Deadlines

This rule amends the Immigration and Naturalization Service (Service) regulations by providing additional exceptions to the deadlines for initial registration for Temporary Protected Status (TPS). Eligible persons who did not register for TPS because they are or were in a status or a condition that made it unnecessary or discouraged registration during the initial registration period may now apply for late registration. This rule also makes conforming changes to reflect the redesignation by the Immigration Reform and Immigrant Responsibility Act of 1996 (IIRIRA) of section 240 of the Immigration and Nationality Act (Act) as section 244, and makes other minor conforming changes to reflect current Service procedures.
