Document Number: 06-4842
Type: Notice
Date: 2006-05-24
Agency: Department of Homeland Security, U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services
U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) is correcting a notice that was published in the Federal Register on May 19, 2006 (71 FR 29166) which intended to correct a notice that was published in the Federal Register on March 31, 2006 (71 FR 16333) announcing the extension of the Temporary Protected Status (TPS) designation for Nicaragua. The USCIS published a notice in the Federal Register on May 19, 2006 (71 FR 29166) that corrected the end date of the 60-day re- registration period. The correction notice published on May 19, 2006 inadvertently identified the end date for re-registration as June 30, 2006. The correct end date for the re-registration period is June 1, 2006. This notice corrects the end date to be June 1, 2006.
