Open source receipt - response correction
The captured headline says a judge lifted the final block on TPS terminations for 13 countries. The held Aug. 6 USCIS Ethiopia page still cites the Massachusetts stay and extends EADs per that order; it does not announce a 13-country lift.
No official USCIS/DHS/court page fetched this window uses the 13-country final-block wording, and the Ethiopia alert still describes the stay as operative for EAD completion dates through Aug. 19, 2026.
Open source receipt - resolution evidence status
Official pages confirm Mullin v. Doe and Somalia termination effective Aug. 14, 2026, but do not confirm a final judicial lift covering 13 countries.
The Ethiopia stay remains the operative USCIS instruction on the held Aug. 6 alert, and no dated lift order for a 13-country set was fetched.
