                <p>Recent policy changes affect thousands of immigrants. Learn how temporary protected status updates may impact your case and what actions to take.
                Temporary Protected Status (TPS) has undergone significant changes in 2025, creating both opportunities and challenges for immigrants from affected countries. Understanding these developments is crucial if you currently hold TPS or believe you may be eligible for protection.
                TPS provides temporary relief from deportation and work authorization for individuals from countries experiencing armed conflict, natural disasters, or extraordinary circumstances. This humanitarian program has protected over 1.1 million people from 17 countries, allowing them to build lives and contribute to American communities.
                </p>
                <h3> Major TPS Changes in 2025</h3>
                <p>The current administration has made sweeping changes to TPS designations. Several countries have lost protection, including Venezuela (affecting 472,000 people), Afghanistan (76,000 individuals), and Honduras and Nicaragua (combined 80,000 people). These terminations don't take effect immediately but include 18-month phase-out periods.
                Meanwhile, other countries maintain their designations. Ukraine's TPS continues through December 2025 due to ongoing war, Haiti's protection extends through February 2026, and Syria maintains status through September 2025.
                </p>
                <blockquote>
                    "TPS changes don't just affect paperwork - they affect families, communities, and the futures that people have worked so hard to build in America. Every case requires immediate attention and strategic planning."
                </blockquote>

                <h3>What You Need to Do Now</h3>
                <p>If your country's TPS is being terminated, don't panic, but act quickly. You have options, including asylum applications, family-based immigration, employment-based petitions, or other forms of relief. The key is consulting with an experienced immigration attorney who can evaluate your specific situation and identify the best pathway forward.
                For those whose countries maintain TPS status, continue following re-registration requirements and keep your documentation current. Even stable TPS designations can change, so staying prepared is essential.
                </p>

                <h3>Critical Steps for TPS Holders</h3>
                <p>First, gather all documentation proving your continuous presence in the United States, employment history, and community ties. Second, explore alternative immigration relief immediately - waiting until your TPS expires severely limits your options. Third, maintain your current TPS status by meeting all re-registration deadlines, even if termination is pending.
                 The immigration landscape changes rapidly, and TPS terminations represent just one aspect of evolving policy. However, with proper legal guidance and timely action, many TPS holders successfully transition to permanent status through family relationships, employment opportunities, or humanitarian protection.
</p>

                <h3>Your Next Steps</h3>
                <p>Don't let TPS changes catch you unprepared. Schedule a consultation with qualified immigration counsel to understand your options and develop a strategy for your family's future. Every situation is unique, and what works for one person may not apply to your circumstances.
                At Janahan law, we've helped hundreds of TPS holders navigate these transitions successfully. Our multilingual team understands the complexity of changing immigration policies and works tirelessly to protect our clients' rights and futures in America.

                <p>The annual H-1B lottery approaches. Our comprehensive guide helps employers and workers navigate the process and improve selection odds.</p>
                <p>H-1B season for fiscal year 2026 ,registration closed in March 2025. With over 400,000 applications competing for just 85,000 slots, strategic preparation is essential for the roughly 20% selection rate.</p>
                <p>The competition has intensified with stricter wage requirements and increased scrutiny of specialty occupation claims. USCIS continues issuing detailed Requests for Evidence, and processing times have extended significantly - premium processing now takes up to 45 days.</p>
                <p>Document specialty occupation requirements clearly. USCIS scrutinizes whether positions truly require specialized knowledge and specific degrees. Develop detailed job descriptions showing complex duties and industry-specific requirements.</p>

                <p>Ensure wage compliance by meeting prevailing wage requirements for your area. Level 1 wages face additional scrutiny, so be prepared to justify entry-level classifications thoroughly.</p>
                <p>Employee Action Items
                 Obtain credential evaluations early if your degree was earned abroad. Gather comprehensive employment documentation showing specialized experience, as three years of relevant experience can substitute for one year of education.
                 Prepare for potential RFEs by assembling detailed resumes, employer letters, certifications, and training records now.</p>
                <blockquote>
                "H-1B success requires bulletproof preparation. We see lottery winners receive denials due to rushed filing. Start preparing months in advance, not days."
                </blockquote>

                <h3>Registration Strategy</h3>
                <p>Complete electronic registration carefully - errors can cause rejection. Multiple employers can register the same beneficiary, but each employer can only submit one registration per person.
                Remember: lottery selection doesn't guarantee approval. Selected cases must still meet all requirements and file complete petitions within 90 days.</p>

               <h3>Critical Mistakes to Avoid</h3>
                <p>Don't submit generic job descriptions or incomplete documentation. Template descriptions often lead to denials. Your Labor Condition Application must be accurate and filed before the H-1B petition.
                Never assume you can provide missing evidence later—initial petitions should be comprehensive and compelling.

               </p>

               <h3>Beyond the Lottery</h3>
                <p>Start green card planning early if permanent residency is your goal. PERM labor certification takes 12-18 months, and early filing extends H-1B eligibility beyond six years.
Consider backup options like O-1, L-1, or TN status if not selected.

               </p>

                <p>H-1B preparation requires months of strategic planning and expert legal guidance. At Janahan law, our employment immigration team achieves exceptional approval rates through meticulous preparation.

                <p>While family preference categories face delays, discover alternative pathways to reunite with loved ones and expedite your case.
Family immigration backlogs have reached crisis levels, with some categories showing 20+ year wait times. F1 category from Philippines faces 12-year delays, while F4 from Mexico shows 23-year backlogs. These delays stem from annual caps of just 226,000 visas against overwhelming demand.
However, strategic planning can dramatically reduce separation time through alternative pathways that many families don't know exist.
</p>

               <h3>Immediate Relative Strategy</h3>
                <p>The most powerful solution is qualifying as an "immediate relative" - spouses, unmarried children under 21, and parents of U.S. citizens. These categories have no numerical limits and process within 12-24 months.
Marriage to a U.S. citizen transforms decades-long waits into one-year processes. U.S. citizen children who turn 21 can immediately petition for parents without preference category delays.
</p>

               <h3>Smart Timing Decisions</h3>
                <p>Consider citizenship timing carefully. Permanent residents in F2A category may benefit from delaying naturalization if priority dates are current, as becoming a citizen restarts the process despite moving to immediate relative status.
Multiple family members can file separate petitions. Coordinate filings among citizen and permanent resident relatives to maximize opportunities.
</p>

               <h3>Alternative Pathways</h3>
                <p>Employment-based immigration may process faster than family categories. If relatives have valuable skills, employer sponsorship through EB-2 or EB-3 could be quicker routes.
                Investor visas (EB-5) bypass family preference limitations entirely for families with $800,000-$1,050,000 to invest.
                Student visas allow temporary reunification while creating opportunities for employment-based permanent residency.</p>

                <blockquote>
                "We regularly find immediate relative qualifications that clients didn't know existed, turning decades-long separations into months-long processes."
                </blockquote>

                <h3>Humanitarian Options</h3>
                <p>Asylum or refugee status provides derivative benefits for spouses and unmarried children under 21, completely bypassing preference categories.
Special programs like VAWA, Cuban Adjustment Act, or country-specific parole programs offer additional pathways for qualifying families.

</p>

               <h3>
Overcoming Barriers
</h3>
                <p>Don't assume disqualifications are permanent. I-601 and I-601A waivers can overcome unlawful presence, criminal issues, or immigration violations.
Extreme hardship waivers focus on qualifying U.S. relatives, considering medical conditions, financial dependencies, and country conditions.

</p>

               <h3>Take Action Now</h3>
                <p>File petitions immediately to secure priority dates - they can only improve, never worsen. Early filing preserves your place in line regardless of current backlogs.
Monitor visa bulletins monthly for unexpected movement. Sudden priority date advances require rapid response to avoid missed opportunities.
Maintain valid status when possible to preserve flexibility and avoid complications that further delay cases.
</p>

                <p>Family immigration involves complex timing decisions and strategic choices that can save years of separation or create permanent entry bars.
