DHS to End Deportation Protections for South Sudanese Immigrants

HeadlineNov 06, 2025

The Department of Homeland Security has announced it’s ending deportation protections for immigrants from South Sudan. Two hundred thirty South Sudanese nationals are currently approved to live and work in the U.S. under the Temporary Protected Status program. According to DHS, immigrants from South Sudan will now have about 60 days to leave the country. This comes despite the fact that the United Nations has warned of escalating armed conflict in South Sudan and widespread food insecurity in the region. The Trump administration also recently ended deportation protection for immigrants from Afghanistan, Cameroon, Haiti, Honduras, Nepal, Nicaragua, Syria and Venezuela.
