{"abstract":"The designation of El Salvador under the Temporary Protected Status (TPS) program will expire on September 9, 2002. This notice extends the Attorney General's designation of El Salvador for 12 months until September 9, 2003. This extension allows eligible nationals of El Salvador to re-register for TPS and to apply for an extension of their employment authorization documentation. The re-registration period will begin on September 9, 2002 and remain in effect through November 12, 2002. Given the large number of Salvadorans affected by this notice and given that the initial registration period runs for the duration of the initial 18-month designation period, the Immigration and Naturalization Service (Service) recognizes that many re-registrants will not receive their new Employment Authorization Documents (EADs) until after their current EADs expire on September 9, 2002. Accordingly, this notice automatically extends, until March 9, 2003, the validity of EADs issued pursuant to the El Salvador TPS program, and explains how TPS beneficiaries or their employers may determine which EADs are automatically extended. This notice also sets forth procedures by which Salvadoran TPS class members must re-register for the 12-month extension.","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/2002/07/11/02-17479.html","cfr_references":[],"citation":"67 FR 46000","comment_url":null,"comments_close_on":null,"correction_of":null,"corrections":[],"dates":"The extension of the TPS designation for El Salvador is effective September 9, 2002, and will remain in effect until September 9, 2003.
