Temporary Protected Status lets eligible nationals of designated countries live and work in the U.S. when conditions at home make return unsafe. Castel & Hall LLP assists TPS applicants in Boston, Framingham, Woburn, and beyond—with special language support for Haitian Creole and Spanish speakers. We file accurate applications, renew on time, and align TPS with your wider family immigration strategy where possible.
You must meet continuous residence and presence dates, pass background checks, and file within DHS windows. We track DHS updates, prepare evidence of presence, and secure employment authorization documents so you can work legally. For those facing court issues or lapses, we collaborate with deportation defense to protect your status while we stabilize your case.
You can request advance parole. Traveling without it risks losing TPS and facing inadmissibility on return.
TPS is temporary and doesn’t by itself provide residency, but some TPS holders can adjust through family or employment if otherwise eligible. Travel on advance parole can affect eligibility in certain cases—get legal advice first.

Yes—our team serves Haitian, Latin American, and other TPS communities in their preferred languages.
PS does not by itself lead to a green card, but some holders may qualify through marriage to a U.S. citizen, approved family petitions, or other relief. We evaluate adjustment pathways, travel on advance parole, and timing for citizenship and naturalization after permanent residence, building a long-term plan that fits your goals.
