Get your family ready. It takes one afternoon.
Getting ready is not giving up — it is how you keep your family together. TPS for Haiti and Syria was terminated, effective July 27, 2026, and TPS work permits expired the same day. Losing TPS is not a deportation order: removal still takes a legal process in which you have rights. These tools put what you already know onto one page you can print, so the people you trust can act if you cannot.
Everything you type stays on this phone or computer. Nothing is sent to us — we never see it.
Do these things today
Start at the top. Each tool prints on one page, and you can stop and come back.
