   MEMORANDUM

Kiesha L. Holmes and Kohrea McKinney appeal pro se from the district court’s judgment dismissing their employment action. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291. We review de novo a dismissal for failure to state a claim under 28 U.S.C. § 1915(e)(2). Barren v. Harrington, 152 F.3d 1193, 1194 (9th Cir.1998) (order). We affirm in part, vacate in part, and remand.

The district court properly dismissed plaintiffs’ Title VII claims without leave to amend because these claims were time-barred. See 42 U.S.C. § 2000e-5(f)(l); O’Donnell v. Vencor Inc., 466 F.3d 1104, 1111 (9th Cir.2006) (per curiam) (Title VII claim was untimely because complaint was filed more than 90 days after Equal Employment Opportunity Commission’s issuance of right-to-sue letter, even though earlier dismissed action based on the same events was timely).

Although the complaint did not contain a short and plain statement of the remaining claims as required by Fed.R.Civ.P. 8(a), dismissal of plaintiffs’ remaining claims was improper at this early stage because plaintiffs were proceeding pro se and the dismissal was with prejudice and without an opportunity to amend. See Flowers v. First Hawaiian Bank, 295 F.3d 966, 976 (9th Cir.2002) (noting that this court is “very cautious in approving a district court’s decision to deny pro se litigants leave to amend”); Lucas v. Dep’t of Corr., 66 F.3d 245, 248 (9th Cir.1995) (per cu-riam) (“Unless it is absolutely clear that no amendment can cure the defect, ... a pro se litigant is entitled to notice of the complaint’s deficiencies and an opportunity to amend prior to dismissal of the action.”).

Accordingly, we vacate in part and remand to allow plaintiffs an opportunity to file an amended complaint.

AFFIRMED in part; VACATED in part; and REMANDED.
