The Trump administration is ending the temporary protected status for South Sudanese nationals that has been in place for more than a decade, according to a US Department of Homeland Security DHS notice published on Wednesday.
Nationals from South Sudan have a 60-day grace period to leave the United States before facing deportation starting in early January, DHS said in the notice on their designation status, which expired on Monday.
Republican US President Donald Trump has sought to strip legal status from hundreds of thousands of migrants from a number of countries since taking office in January as part of his broad immigration crackdown and America First agenda.
