Temporary Protected Status Extension and Redesignation for Ukraine

Tuesday, Oct. 3 | 2-3 p.m. Eastern

U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) invites you to participate in an engagement on Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for Ukraine on 

Tuesday, Oct. 3 from 2 to 3 p.m. Eastern.

On Aug. 18, 2023, Secretary of Homeland Security Alejandro Mayorkas announced the extension and redesignation of Ukraine for TPS for 18 months. The extension of TPS for Ukraine allows current beneficiaries to retain TPS through April 19, 2025, if they meet eligibility requirements. Existing beneficiaries of TPS for Ukraine seeking to avoid gaps in their employment authorization documentation may re-register during the 60-day re-registration period which runs from Aug. 21, 2023, through Oct. 20, 2023. The redesignation allows Ukrainian nationals (and individuals having no nationality who last habitually resided in Ukraine) who have continuously resided in the United States since Aug. 16, 2022, and have been continuously physically present in the United States since Oct. 20, 2023, to file initial applications for TPS, if they are otherwise eligible.

During this engagement, USCIS will provide an overview of the extension and redesignation of Ukraine for TPS. We will then hold a question-and-answer session. We will not address case-specific questions, questions outside the scope of the engagement, or issues under active litigation.

USCIS Launches Online Form to Request a Field Office Appointment

USCIS Launches Online Form to Request a
Field Office Appointment

On Aug. 21, USCIS launched a new online form for individuals, attorneys, and accredited representatives to request an in-person appointment for certain customer service-related appointment requests, such as ADIT stamp or emergency advanced parole, at their local field office without having to call the USCIS Contact Center.

This is an important step in our efforts to improve the experience of the people we serve and to reduce USCIS Contact Center wait times.

With this new tool, individuals can visit my.uscis.gov/appointment to submit a request for a specific date, time, and type of appointment with their local field office. This online appointment request form is not a self-scheduling tool and does not guarantee an appointment for the preferred date or time requested. The Contact Center will review and validate each request before confirming the appointment date and time.

Individuals, attorneys, and accredited representatives will still have the option to call the USCIS Contact Center to request an appointment. However, USCIS strongly encourages users to use the new online appointment request form to improve their overall customer experience. Using the online appointment request form will save time, increase efficiency, and reduce call volume to the USCIS Contact Center.

Visit my.uscis.gov/appointment for more information on the online appointment request form. We will hold outreach activities to ensure individuals, legal representatives, and other interested parties are familiar with the online appointment request form.

For more information on USCIS and its programs, please visit uscis.gov or follow us on Twitter, Instagram, YouTube, Facebook, and LinkedIn.

Excellent career pathway through paid apprenticeship!

by | Aug 18, 2023 | Uncategorized

Manchester Community College, Workforce Development Center together with the ApprenticeshipNH
initiative partnership with Elliot Hospital and Catholic Medical Center works to provide healthcare career pathways through paid apprenticeships for the greater Manchester community.

They have sponsored many cohorts of new medical assistants, licensed nursing assistants, patient service representatives and pharmacy technicians to help solve their workplace staffing issues. Working together with the Community College System and NH Works partners, the hospitals can recruit, hire, educate and train new healthcare workers while allowing people to enter a new career without educational debt and by providing the experience that people need to have successful opportunities for advancement.

Both hospitals support a diverse and inclusive workplace and welcome all people who are interested in these apprenticeship programs and other roles to apply directly through their hospital’s career portal.
