The US Department of Homeland Security terminated Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for Yemen, giving roughly 1,400 Yemeni nationals 60 days to leave the country or face arrest and deportation.

Yemeni TPS holders now face a hard 60-day deadline to secure another lawful status (asylum, family-based, employment-based) or depart, compressing legal and relocation timelines. Employers, universities, and landlords relying on TPS-based work authorization and documentation should expect rapid eligibility changes and potential workforce attrition. The move increases near-term ICE enforcement exposure for affected individuals once the wind-down period ends.
