Release Date: January 15, 2010

For Immediate Release

Contact: 202-282-8010

"As part of the Department's ongoing efforts to assist Haiti following Tuesday's devastating earthquake, I am announcing the designation of Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for Haitian nationals who were in the United States as of January 12, 2010. This is a disaster of historic proportions and this designation will allow eligible Haitian nationals in the United States to continue living and working in our country for the next 18 months. Providing a temporary refuge for Haitian nationals who are currently in the United States and whose personal safety would be endangered by returning to Haiti is part of this Administration's continuing efforts to support Haiti's recovery."

"At this moment of tragedy in Haiti it is tempting for people suffering in the aftermath of the earthquake to seek refuge elsewhere. But attempting to leave Haiti now will only bring more hardship to the Haitian people and nation. The international community has rallied to deliver relief to Haiti. Much has already arrived and much more is on its way. The Haitians are resilient and determined and their role in addressing this crisis in their homeland will be essential to Haiti's future."

"It is important to note that TPS will apply only to those individuals who were in the United States as of January 12, 2010. Those who attempt to travel to the United States after January 12, 2010 will not be eligible for TPS and will be repatriated."

"The Department of Homeland Security continues to extend sympathy to our Haitian neighbors and support the worldwide relief effort underway in every way we can. Four Coast Guard cutters have arrived in Haiti, in addition to a variety of Coast Guard assets that were already in the area to support military air traffic control, conduct damage assessments and rescue people in need of assistance. The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) continues to work closely with the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) and the State Department - the lead U.S. federal agencies in the response - while coordinating the deployment of state and local Urban Search and Rescue Teams from across the country to Haiti and standing by to provide food, water and other resources as requested. U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) has provided aircraft to support response efforts."

"Haitians in the U.S. who are eligible to apply for TPS should go to www.uscis.gov or call USCIS toll-free at (800) 375-5283."

hi my American sistas...why are some of u ladies working today. I thought it was a holiday?

[JQ Smiley BOOM 3]

Cell Phone vs. Bible

I wonder what would happen if we treated our Bible like we treat our

cell phones?

What if we carried it around in our purses or pockets?

What if we turned back to go get it if we forgot it?

What if we flipped through it several times a day?

What if we used it to receive messages?

What if we treated it like we couldn't live without it?

What if we gave it to kids as gifts?

What if we used it as we traveled?

What if we used it in case of an emergency?

What if we upgraded it to get the latest version?

This is something to make you go, hmmm, where is my Bible?

Oh, and one more thing. Unlike our cellphones, we don’t ever have to worry

about our bible being disconnected becauseJesus already paid the bill!

Have a blessed day!

Hi Philly!! I'm glad to know that you have begun to hear from family and friends back in Haiti. I will definitely continue to pray for more good news on your end.

Dens, welcome back & congrats on the good news. I dbt it will take DHL 2wks especially if he's picking it up. If there is any delay, it would be on the embassy end.

If I'm not mistaken, Steve or Nat(?) good job on the driving today.

As usual, take care all & enjoy the week!!!

hi my American sistas...why are some of u ladies working today. I thought it was a holiday?

I am because we get a day of our choice off and we just found out they are shutting the water off in the building a pipe broke and wont stop running water.. So yipppppppppeeeeeeeeeee! Likkle more!

[kjenkins86 5]

kjenkins, I almost always cried when leaving JA my 4th through 8th times. You aren't the only one. The question is, did your man cry too?

Steven successfully navigated the streets & highways today. I hope that gave him a big confidence boost regarding driving in Houston. I told him he can now run all the errands while I'm at work.

Yes, MrsTee, due to the lack of street #s, we opted to pick up the visa/passport from the DHL office around the corner from the Montego Bay airport.

Nat, he says he cries when he walks away, doubt it! But I can definitly tell that he's the least bit happy when I'm leaving.

[MoLuvsAcory 0]

Hi everyone!!!!

Philly, I'm glad to know that you were able to hear something from family & friends. Unfortunately my co-worker lost an uncle who went to Haiti on vacation from NY. Sad situation.

Dens, welcome back & congrats on your approval. Depending on how fast the embassy processes the visa usually determines how fast DHL will have visa for pick up. Our interview was the the 14th which was a Tuesday & by that Friday it was ready for pick up.

Nothing much going on with me. Taking it easy. My son went w/his dad & sister for wkend & holiday, so that gave us some true alone time.

Take care everyone

[NatPatBen 3]

Why did I pay for the expedited service ($30 extra) to get official copies of Steven's birth certificate from the RGD office... in early December. We still haven't received them.

I emailed them last week asking for an update. The website says they respond within 2 days, yet, no response.

Are you talking about Rush Limbaugh? Roger Ebert issued an open letter to him about that.

hi my American sistas...why are some of u ladies working today. I thought it was a holiday?

Actually, I can't be too upset. I'm getting so much work done today that I'm glad to be here.... plus, traffic is light since so many others are off.

Nat, he says he cries when he walks away, doubt it! But I can definitly tell that he's the least bit happy when I'm leaving.

What do you mean by that?

Hey MoAcory! Thank you, I'm glad to be back! Missing my baby though but please believe we about to be tracking the status of this Visa so he can go and pick it up!

Glad to hear that things are well with you and your boo.
