Does anybody applying for TPS has a situation like mine?? I had my BIO Metrics done on 09/15/15 and I just received a letter from USCIS saying that FBI didn't catch my fingerprint... I spent almost an hr to get the FP done and now I'm having to go back again to do it on 10/14 i'm like wtf?

Finger print jammai arko thaau maa (if you know what i mean) hola ani kasari capture hunxa ta? May be you should try to roll some other organ not your fingers in the fingerprint scanner *wink* *wink*

@nepasider: you ain't kidding boy

Gayera deu na ta feri. Whats big deal here ? Administrative/human error ta jaha pani bhai halcha ni. Aba timrai bhagyama parya raicha ta ke garne ta. Dont whine.

I believe the fingerprint process is same for green card and TPS, so I will weigh in here. Yup, its normal to be rejected by FBI for fingerprint. USCIS let you try three times(for green card and I hope its the same for TPS), and if FBI rejects all these three, then USCIS will ask you to provide police clearance report from all states and countries you have lived after you turned eighteen. My friend's fingerprint was rejected three times for GC and she had to provide police clearance letters to USCIS.

I read somewhere that you can buy some lotion/gel , which helps to improve your fingerprint screen quality. http://ask.metafilter.com/130462/Any-tips-on-how-to-become-more-fingerprintable

Guys i need help on tps problem

today i checked my status with both receipt number and it says like this

Fingerprint Fee Was Received

is this all normal or there is any problem as one status changed which i have written on that for and other not change which i did not wrote on the form.
need your suggestion ... thank you.

@Madanbahadur Ji, thank you for your clarification. Several years ago I had a misdemeanor charge of hit and run and when i consulted with my lawyer, she said to send them the court disposition record and which i did. But here is the thing, when i run a background check for myself through a cop friend of mine, it didn't show up anything and as far as I know and I can remember when i was charged with the crime at the courthouse, i don't think that they ever took my fingerprint and I believe thats why its not catching up with the FBI's database... oh well we will see what happens on the next round.. anyways, thanks once again.

PU_Hunter, like I said above, I don't know much about TPS, but for green card (I-485), there is a question in the application "have you ever been charged/arrested...?, so even if you were in some kind of diversion program or you went through pre trial diversion or even the charge was dismissed eventually (no fault of yours), you need to answer yes if there is a similar question in TPS application. And provide the explanation about what happened. In addition, you need to provide certified court disposition letter saying that case is closed now to USCIS. As long as the crime doesn't fall under "crime of moral turpitude - CIMT" (felony, theft, etc), you will be fine.And yes, hit and run doesn't fall under crime of moral turpitude. http://www.ilrc.org/files/documents/n.7-crimes_involving_moral_turpitude.pdf

@RKY, I amn't sure if I understood your problem correctly. You filed TPS and EAD, correct? If so, looks like they approved your EAD, and your EAD card is being produced. I would take this as a positive sign.

@madanbahadur, i applied for EAD and TPS both, i have done biometric on 1st octuber ,biometric office ma gaye pachhi usle form fill up garna bhanyou ...therr was option to write receipt number but i have written only I 765 receipt number as i f forget to write I821 receipt number .
Today i called about my status update at morning and at evening when i chacked my status was updated according to avove.

What ur status says is normal.
You should have put both numbers. I don't think anyone here at sajha can answer your question. Only uscis can answer your question.
From the info you provided, your case should be decided next week. They usually take ~75 days. Or u can check the status of cases adjacent to yours (plus minus 2 numbers). They usually have fingerprint fee received date same as yours. If every one of them is approved but yours, then u should start panicking and making calls. Otherwise chill out, the case officer might be busy. So check the numbers adjacent to yours. You will get an idea.

Bairagi@ my status said finger print print pay receive. And other status saud new card produced

That's normal. Many people who had fingerprint on July 28 has same status as yours. So check numbers adjacent to yours ( do u understand what I m saying ?) . U will get an idea .

@Bairagi , so u mean there will be no problem even i used only one receipt number?

Hope so. There is nothing you can do abt it. So wait 1-2 weeks, and if everybody around ur case no gets approved but not urs, then you should start calling uscis and explain the problem. Ahile ko computer ko jamana ma most probably you should be fine. Fingerprint is primarily for TPs (than EAD). Or they will let you know. Unless you have criminal case, you should be fine. Chill out. Anything that is worthwhile is NOT EASy.

Bairagi@thanks a lot for informations , if i will get EAD before TPS approve, will i able to apply SS or i need to wait tilll TPS approve for SS?

Depends on state. Most states will give ss with EAD only but heard in VA, they need TPS approval too. So take your passport and EAD, go to ss office and give it a try. Worst thing that can happen is they will say NO. That's all. No need to be afraid. They won't do anything to you Even if you are out of status. Once u get ss card, then u can apply for drivers license with EAD, SS card and proof of residence like utility bill, rent lease or bank check book.

@RKY,

Guys,

DO we need to submit our photograph with the TPS application? I did not see anywhere about the photographs.

@Sexy in sari,Thank you so much i was just worried a bit
