In so doing DHS pointed out that the reason for the most recent designation, in 2001, of Salvadorans as eligible for TPS-an earthquake-no longer justified maintaining immigration benefits for those persons.
This overlooks the fact that the original reason for special treatment for citizens of El Salvador, the political violence in the country, has continued and intensified since Salvadorans were first granted TPS in 1990.
TPS was established in the Immigration Act of 1990, which created a program allowing the Attorney General to designate nationals of certain countries suffering political or environmental difficulties to remain in the US for intervals of 18 months.

Immigrant (permanent) visas are available to qualified individuals who wish to live permanently or indefinitely in the US.
In most, but not all, cases, in order to be eligible to apply for an immigrant visa, a foreign citizen must be sponsored by either a US citizen relative (spouse, father, mother, brother, sister or child over the age of 21), a US lawful permanent resident spouse or parent, or by a prospective employer.
All immigrant categories, except for 'immediate relatives' and 'special immigrants, ' are numerically limited and annual per-country quotas are prescribed by law.
