CWN Editor's Note: The Office of Policy and Advocacy of the US bishops’ Secretariat of Migration has published a three-page “Update on Temporary Protected Status for Ukraine.”
The update addresses three questions: “What is TPS and why is it important for Ukrainians in the United States?”, “What is the difference between TPS and humanitarian parole?”, and “How has the USCCB responded to this issue?”
“TPS is a temporary form of humanitarian relief for people from a designated country, allowing them to remain in the United States legally when conditions in their country of origin make safe return impractical or impossible due to an armed conflict, environmental disaster, epidemic, or other extraordinary and temporary conditions,” the update stated. “In April 2022, Ukraine first received its TPS designation after Russia expanded its military invasion of the country.”
