Hi Guys,

Can somebody tell me how long it will take to get the TPS approved paper in mail after case is approved?

Guys, TPS ma Nepal gaera bihe garera budhi lyaera aauna milcha ki mildaina. Budhiko status k huncha? Kaslai thaha cha?

@Nepali kta:Mildaina bro budi lauena....This is only the status for individual.

Has anyone filed I 765 with a (12)category? Did it get approved/denied/audited? It got me confused as I was in Opt few years back and filed the form with a (12) category. Not sure, if it's going to come back with rfe or it's going to be okay. Anyone been through the situation?

thank you

@RajSekar: So you received your TPS while staying in H1b status. You also said that you have have received your EAD. Are you using your EAD from TPS or not ?
You also said that you are planning to maintain your status. Are you referring to your H1b status?
I just want to know how you are planning to maintain your h1b status without being impacted due to having EAD from TPS.

@Karnali: i goth the tps while i was on end period of OPT at the same time i was approved on h1b so now i am working on h1b from OCT 1.I am not touching TPS EAD until and unless there is emergency i mean if anything happen to h1b.So, I am just keeping TPS as for BAckup.And also planning to go to nepal for stamping by taking AP from TPS so if my h1b is not stamped also, i can come back through TPS AP.Hope it clears.Let me know if you need more doubt.

Regards,
Raja

@rajsekar,

I also applied for TPS and got it approved. I have my H1b stamping done last year. Do I need to take AP to travel to Nepal or can I go on H1b. What will be the immigration status when you enter into us? If you enter into existing stamped H1b from nepal to US, what will happen to TPS since in TPS you have to take AP to travel and viceversa.

You will get the paper approval of TPS in mail by 3 weeks.

Thanks All,
I am still debating if i should apply requesting EAD or without requesting EAD.
The deadline for TPS is december 21. if tps is approved without EAD, we should be able to apply for EAD after december 21 ? am i correct to say that ?

@rajsekar how many days it took to get your TPS approve letter on your hand after USCIS Mail approved notification? Can you share me thank you .....

@jesth
I am on same boat. Online case status shows Case approved on October 19. Haven't yet recived mail notice. My receipt date was July 27.

@Ohio: In my understanding if you go to Nepal without AP your TPS status will be cancelled.So i guess you have to choose one status while entering to US.

I would suggest you to consult with Lawyer Before travelling.I am planning to do the same.

Regards,

Raja

@Jestha: My TPS case was approved on 14th October and last friday(oct 23) i got the Approval notice in my mail.

Raja

@rajsekar for your response.....

Sajha Mitra haru : Mero TPS ajahai approve bhako chaina. I received my EAD a month ago but haven't heard any thing regarding -I-821. Any suggestion on why this thing is delayed? Should I call the customer service number and ask them why is my case still pending? Any suggestion will be highly appreciated. Thanks.

hey guys. tps and both approved. Does the final mail from the USCIS require signature from the USPS?

No

Thanks basebook.

Is it normal for EAD to be approved and mailed while TPS application is still not approved?
Already got EAD few days ago, but status for TPS application stuck at "Fingerprint Fee Was Received" since September 17.

Yeah its normal
