Honduras requests U.S. case-by-case review of TPS status
Honduran President Nasry Asfura has formally requested that the United States government conduct case-by-case reviews for Honduran citizens affected by the cancellation of Temporary Protected Status (TPS). The President emphasized that many beneficiaries have resided in the U.S. for decades, maintaining stable lives and investments.
The Honduran government has activated a strategic roadmap to manage the consequences of the TPS termination. This plan includes providing consular assistance, legal aid, and preparing measures to facilitate the eventual return of citizens. While the government does not anticipate an immediate mass return, officials are working to mitigate the impact on those losing work permits and legal protections.
The National Commissioner for Human Rights (Conadeh) warned that approximately 55,000 Hondurans are now exposed to detention and deportation. The loss of TPS status also results in the immediate loss of work authorization, health insurance, and driver's licenses. President Asfura noted that the administration is also preparing to integrate returning citizens into the national economy, encouraging them to become investors and contributors to the country's development.
