{"abstract":"On September 16, 1991, the Attorney General designated Somalia under the Temporary Protected Status (TPS) program for a 12-month period that expired on September 16, 1992. That initial designation allowed eligible nationals of Somalia (and aliens having no nationality who last habitually resided in Somalia) who had continuously resided in the United States since September 16, 1991, to apply for TPS. That initial designation has been extended each subsequent year. Presently, TPS for Somalia is scheduled to expire on September 17, 2001. This notice extends the TPS designation for Somalia for another 12- month period (until September 17, 2002) and sets forth the procedures by which nationals of Somalia (and aliens having no nationality who last habitually resided in Somalia) who previously registered for TPS may re-register for the TPS program. This notice also redesignates Somalia under the TPS program, thereby expanding TPS eligibility to include nationals of Somalia (and aliens having no nationality who last habitually resided in Somalia) who, among other requirements described in this notice, have been \"continuously physically present in the United States\" since September 4, 2001.","action":"Notice.","agencies":[{"raw_name":"DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE","name":"Justice Department","id":268,"url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/agencies/justice-department","json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/agencies/268","parent_id":null,"slug":"justice-department"},{"raw_name":"Immigration and Naturalization Service","name":"Immigration and Naturalization Service","id":232,"url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/agencies/immigration-and-naturalization-service","json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/agencies/232","parent_id":268,"slug":"immigration-and-naturalization-service"}],"body_html_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/full_text/html/2001/09/04/01-22152.html","cfr_references":[],"citation":"66 FR 46288","comment_url":null,"comments_close_on":null,"correction_of":null,"corrections":[],"dates":"Extension of designation and reregistration.
