On March 31, 2025, a federal court issued a nationwide order blocking the decision to terminate the 2023 TPS designation for Venezuela. The net effect of the order is to reinstate the Jan. 17, 2025 notice that extended the 2023 TPS designation for Venezuela to Oct. 2, 2026. The order will remain in effect while a decision from the court on the merits of the underlying legal action remains pending. The government could choose to appeal the order.
