SAVE and E-Verify Release Updates on EADs Under TPS for Burma and Ethiopia, Superseding Earlier Notices

Apr 20, 2026 | Immigration Articles

The Systematic Alien Verification for Entitlements (SAVE) and E-Verify programs, under U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS), recently updated guidance on Employment Authorization Document (EAD) validity in light of court orders affecting Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for several countries, superseding earlier notices on the terminations of TPS for those countries.

Previously, SAVE and E-Verify issued notices for South Sudan, Somalia, Haiti, and Syria. New notices, issued April 13, 2026, are for Burma (SAVE; E-Verify) and Ethiopia (SAVE; E-Verify).

Affected TPS beneficiaries generally remain in valid status, and their EADs remain valid, subject to the applicable court orders and country-specific guidance on the relevant USCIS TPS pages.
