Extension of the Designation of Burundi for Temporary Protected Status; Extension of Employment Authorization Documentation for Eligible TPS Beneficiaries

Streszczenie

The designation of Burundi for Temporary Protected Status (TPS) will expire on November 2, 2005. This Notice extends TPS for Burundi for 12 months, until November 2, 2006, and sets forth procedures for nationals of Burundi (or aliens having no nationality who last habitually resided in Burundi) with TPS to re-register and to apply for an extension of their employment authorization documents (EADs) for the additional 12-month period. Certain nationals of Burundi (or aliens having no nationality who last habitually resided in Burundi) who previously have not applied for TPS may be eligible to apply under the late initial registration provisions. The Department of Homeland Security recognizes that some re- registrants may not receive their new employment authorization documents until after their current documents expire on November 2, 2005. Accordingly, when eligible TPS beneficiaries re-register for TPS and appear at a U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services Application Support Center for collection of biometrics, stickers will be affixed to their employment authorization documents to extend the validity of the cards through February 2006.
