f1 बाट ग्रीन हुन सकिन्छ टी पी एस ले ?

kasto complex banako kura....i just talked with lawer today here is my example

I am working 40 hrs on my OPT which will expire in December, my company applied for H1 both times during my 27 months of OPT+STEM extension and did not get picked on the lottery. My company has already started the GC process and i am waiting for the PERM to approve. But my OPT will expire in December and since i wont be getting GC by december i will be applying for TPS instead to keep my status is legal while my GC processing is running in parallel (I-140/485). This is totally possible.....whoever saying GC based on employment (while in TPS) is not possible need to do some more research.

@Satrianic:As you have done some research on this..can you please advise me on my situation? I finished my undergrad..applied h1 twice..didnt go through lottery each time..opt expired..applied one of those college who provides CPT and currently working under it..any suggestion would be appreciated.

Okay apply for TPS/EAD once approved for Nepal (likely to be in next week or two). Once TPS is approved you can stop going to CPT college but only can start working once EAD is approved ~90 days of application, so you may wanna keep going to CPT college till EAD is approved. Once EAD is approved ask your boss to file form GC (we all know how H1B 2017 gonna turn out again). GC is a long process, just in my case they started in late February and i am still on PERM phase so 18 month of TPS would be barely suffice if you start working on it. Another good news is any nation granted TPS has never been revoked it TPS after month. Atleast they get renewal for 4-5 years. Good luck

Thanks for the suggestion bro..appreciate your help..H1b is a mess man

@satrianic bro did u file on eb2 ?? How many months on the opt did u file for perm ?? Thanks man..

mine is master's EB-2 category, they started with prevailing wage process in February (20th month of 27th month of OPT)

i was dead bored @ work..so i visited USCIS site for TPS and the highlighted statement triggered my freaky sense of humor 'if it is feasible to be green via TPS while you are on F1'

once you inform school officer they will mention on i-20 that student has applied EAD based on TPS but that notice should be published at federal register. Even for haiti it was published that till the time TPS is effective for them they can have reduced course load all the semester with consultation with school international advisor. As long as you maintain F1 status based on federal register and apply TPS everybody should be fine. The only thing is have to change school frequently based on job place.

SO MAIN POINT OF ALL THE PEOPLE HERE IS " J SUKAI HOSH NEPAL CHAI NA FARKINA BARU JASARI BHAYE NI YEHI BASNE " ...YOUR MOM MUST BE VERY PROUD OF YOU SON.

@kingofdandi4...your caps lock is ON. Also, yes my mom is proud that I can earn and save some money instead to going to CPT college and ask more money from Nepal to pay my tuition fee.

@santrianic ....I TURN MY CAPLOCK ON JUST SO YOU KNOW.....NEPAL ECONOMY IS GOING DOWN TO GUTTER AND YOU TRY TO BE UNAWARE OF THE FACT.......PEOPLE START SETTLING DOWN FOR BETTER LIFE WONT HELP ANYWAY TO UPRISE THE CURRENT SITUATION WE ALL ARE FACING ......ANYWAY NOT MY CONCERN WHAT YOU DO .......JUST REMEMBER "YOUR MOM MUST BE VERY PROUD OF YOU!!!!!!"

@kingofdandi4......and you propose going back to Nepal to help economy instead of working here and sending money back to Nepal ...KUDOS..you mom is proud of you starting today.

Lets put this way, in few years, i have sent back home the amount 100 times the value than what i would have earned in Nepal in few decades and that money is not being deposited in a bank, they are for expenses and have been spent, circulated through Nepalese market. So i can proudly say by living in US, my personal contribution for increasing Nepals economy is 100 times more compared to if i was living in Nepal.
Remember again, remittance is the major source of income for Nepal.

satrianic bro has posted a very helpful information. i think i am in your shoes. I also have masters degree and did not get picked in h1 lottery(stem degree). I have OPT till first week of December 2015. Do we have to attend college if TPS is granted? My consultancy is willing to sponsor gc but they are in recruitment phase. Hate thinking of joining CPT colleges. It would be better to get EAD through TPS ,but well let it be official first .Please advise.

@saptarangi....TPS is likely to be granted to be today or by end of this week.. Even if we apply TPS next week we will get out biometrics done in July and EAD by end of September and can work on TPS right after that, so no need to join CPT college. Even if one is not working and just maintaining their status through CPT/Community colleges they can stop attending one as soon as USCIS announces TPS.

Hi all i just have 60 days to transfer my sevis to another university from kaplan. So what will be my option regarding TPS .

@chulbul... are you working on CPT from kaplan or just maintaining your status...if you are working then EAD from TPS might not be available until late Sept given that USCIS will announce TPS this week. If you are just maintaining your status then you can stop going to school altogether once TPS is announced and start working once EAD is furnished to you.

So doesnt that put me out of status .

@chulbul...TPS will take of that....one can't simply be granted TPS and be out of status same time. Yes, if your TPS application is denied then you might be out of status but not once you are approved for TPS. TPS is a lengthily process and takes around 3 month for EAD so try to apply as soon as it is announced (likely within 2-3 days).
