A district court in Minnesota has rejected the AAO’s decision in Matter of H-G-G-, which held that a grant of Temporary Protected Status (TPS) is not an admission for adjustment of status purposes. The court further held that for the purpose of the continuous maintenance of status requirements in section 245(c) of the INA, the grant of TPS constitutes a new entry, and maintenance of status should be measured starting on the date of the grant of TPS. The case is called Hernandez de Gutierrez & Gutierrez v. Barr and can be found on PACER by looking up Case # 0:19-cv-02495-JRT-KMM in the District of Minnesota.
