The Department of Homeland Security published a notice in the Federal Register that they were designating Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for the country of Cameroon for 18 months. This designation of TPS is based upon extreme violence perpetrated by government forces and armed separatists, and a rise in attacks led by Boko Haram in Cameroon making return un-safe. The Secretary of Homeland Security Alejandro N. Mayorkas announced the 18-month designation of Cameroon for TPS in April.
