The long‐run effects of temporary protection from deportation
研究美国临时保护身份（TPS）政策对萨尔瓦多移民收入和财产拥有的长期影响，发现该政策在至少15年内显著提高了受益者的收入、住房拥有率和汽车使用率。
Abstract This paper estimates the effect of Temporary Protected Status (TPS), a temporary legalization policy, on the incomes and property ownership of Salvadoran recipients over 20 years. We compare likely undocumented Salvadoran immigrants eligible for TPS to a control group of likely undocumented immigrants ineligible for TPS in an event study design that allows us to observe the policy's effects over 2 decades. We find that earnings, homeownership, and use of a car increased considerably for at least 15 years following the granting of TPS. This suggests that even temporary and limited legal status can have substantial and sustained benefits for recipients.
