The Attorney General has extended for 12 months,
from August 11, 1994 to August 10, 1995, a
temporary protective status, TPS, for eligible nationals
of Bosnia-Herzegovina. Any alien who is a national
of Bosnia-Herzegovina or any alien, having no
nationality who last resided in Bosnia-Herzegovina and who
has been present in the U.S. since August 10, 1992 and
was previously granted temporary protective status,
must comply with re-registration requirements.
Eligible applicants are required to re-register by filing
a new application for TPS, Form I-821 together
with Form I-765, ""Application for
Employment Authorization"". There is no filing fee for the
Form I-821 filed as part of the re-registration application.
Although all TPS re-registrations must include Form I-765,
the filing fee is only required when
Employment Authorization is requested.
Generally,
eligibility for TPS during the one year period, ending on
AUGUST 10, 1995, requires the filing of Form I-821 and I-765
before August 15, 1994. However, late re-registration
applications may be excusable.
Effective November 5,
1993, eligible applicants who did not register during the
initial one year registration period, may file if they are or
were in a valid or non-valid immigrant status during the
initial registration period. Non-immigrants are eligible for
this late filing whether still in valid non-immigrant status
or after their status has ended. However, late registrations
must be filed no later than 30 days after the end of immigrant
or non-immigrant status. For any additional
information contact your local INS office.
