DED

WHAT IS IT?

The DED stands for Deferred Enforced Departure Deferred Enforced Departure. Es a temporary immigration protection that allows:

  • Obtain social security with which undocumented persons would obtain a work permit.
  • They will be able to travel to their home country in case of an emergency.

DED was established as a vital tool within U.S. foreign policy. for the following reasons:

  • To protect people from civil, political, and humanitarian crises in their countries of origin, and to protect those who face insecurity upon return to their countries.
  • To further U.S. foreign policy. and other domestic interests in connection with the suspension of the deportation of persons.

The DED is a measure granted by the President, unlike other types of immigration semi-status.

Key Points
  • DED protected persons are generally not subject to removal from the United States for a designated period.
  • The person with DED will have the opportunity to apply for a work permit, and request permission to leave the country for special circumstances.
  • DED would give 200,000 undocumented Colombians the opportunity to continue working and contributing to our communities without fear of deportation.
  • The DED is an unusual humanitarian figure in U.S. immigration law. It grants a work permit giving the opportunity to work legally.
  • Currently the only regions in the world that have DED are Liberia, Hong Kong and Venezuela.

DED is not a specific immigration status, it is only an immigration relief.
