Employment Authorization for
Ethiopian F–1 Nonimmigrant Students
Experiencing Severe Economic
Hardship as a Direct Result of the
Current Crisis in Ethiopia
U.S. Immigration and Customs

AGENCY:
ACTION:
Notice.
This notice announces that
the Secretary of Homeland Security
(Secretary) is suspending certain
regulatory requirements for F–1
nonimmigrant students whose country
of citizenship is Ethiopia, regardless of
country of birth (or individuals having
no nationality who last habitually
resided in Ethiopia), and who are
experiencing severe economic hardship
as a direct result of the current crisis in
Ethiopia. The Secretary is taking action
to provide relief to these Ethiopian
students who are lawful F–1
nonimmigrant students so the students
may request employment authorization,
work an increased number of hours
while school is in session, and reduce
their course load while continuing to
maintain their F–1 nonimmigrant
student status. The U.S. Department of
Homeland Security (DHS) will deem an
F–1 nonimmigrant student granted
employment authorization by means of
this notice to be engaged in a ‘‘full
course of study’’ for the duration of the
employment authorization, if the
nonimmigrant student satisfies the
minimum course load requirement
described in this notice.
SUMMARY:
This notice is effective December
12, 2022, through Wednesday June 12,
2024.

What action is DHS taking under this
notice?
The Secretary is exercising authority
under 8 CFR 214.2(f)(9) to temporarily
suspend the applicability of certain
requirements governing on-campus and
off-campus employment for F–1
nonimmigrant students whose country
of citizenship is Ethiopia regardless of
country of birth (or individuals having
no nationality who last habitually
resided in Ethiopia), who are present in
the United States in lawful F–1
nonimmigrant student status on the date
of publication of this notice, and who
are experiencing severe economic
hardship as a direct result of the current
crisis in Ethiopia. Effective with this
publication, suspension of the
employment limitations is available
through [DATE], 2024, for those who are
in lawful F–1 nonimmigrant status on
the date of publication of this notice.
DHS will deem an F–1 nonimmigrant
student granted employment
authorization through this notice to be
engaged in a ‘‘full course of study’’ for
the duration of the employment
authorization, if the student satisfies the
minimum course load set forth in this
notice.1 See 8 CFR 214.2(f)(6)(i)(F).
Who is covered by this notice?
This notice applies exclusively to F–
1 nonimmigrant students who meet all
of the following conditions:
(1) Are a citizen of Ethiopia regardless
of country of birth (or an individual
having no nationality who last
habitually resided in Ethiopia);
(2) Were lawfully present in the
United States in F–1 nonimmigrant
status under section 101(a)(15)(F)(i) of
the Immigration and Nationality Act
(INA), 8 U.S.C. 1101(a)(15)(F)(i), on the
date of publication of this notice;
(3) Are enrolled in an academic
institution that is Student and Exchange
Visitor Program (SEVP)-certified for
1 Because the suspension of requirements under
this notice applies throughout an academic term
during which the suspension is in effect, DHS
considers an F–1 nonimmigrant student who
engages in a reduced course load or employment (or
both) after this notice is effective to be engaging in
a ‘‘full course of study,’’ see 8 CFR 214.2(f)(6), and
eligible for employment authorization, through the
end of any academic term for which such student
is matriculated as of [DATE], 2024, provided the
student satisfies the minimum course load
requirements in this notice. DHS also considers
students who engage in online coursework pursuant
to U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE)
coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID–19) guidance for
nonimmigrant students to be in compliance with
regulations while such guidance remains in effect.
