The Trump administration will end deportation protections for Haitian migrants in the United States, Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem said Friday. The Department of Homeland Security announced that Haiti’s Temporary Protected Status, which covers roughly 520,000 nationals, will expire on Aug. 3 and be formally terminated on Sept. 2, revoking the migrants’ work permits and protection from removal.

DHS said a review by U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services, carried out with the State Department, found that “overall, country conditions have improved to the point where Haitians can return home in safety.” The agency is urging affected Haitians to pursue other immigration avenues or use the CBP Home mobile app to arrange voluntary departure; officials said the program includes complimentary airfare and a $1,000 travel stipend.

Haitians were first granted TPS after the 2010 earthquake, and the Biden administration extended the designation to February 2026. Noem curtailed that extension earlier this year and is now ending the status altogether, a step enabled by a U.S. Supreme Court ruling on May 19 that permitted the administration to proceed with terminating TPS for other nationalities. The decision aligns with President Donald Trump’s broader pledge to tighten both legal and illegal immigration.

Immigration advocates argue that Haiti remains unsafe, noting the State Department’s ongoing “do not travel” advisory because of gang violence and political instability. DHS reiterated that Haitians who fail to secure another legal status or depart before Sept. 2 will become subject to enforcement proceedings.
