Hi everyone,
I have some very confusing questions regarding my situation. I have been reading comments posted on Sajha but still haven't found some important answers, the main factors in terms of taking decisions for my future because I am planning everything based on those. I evaluated enough and it's the time to take decisions.
Here are questions:

1) I am trying to decide when is the best for me to apply for TPS with EAD cause I am on OPT and it will expire in Feb, 2016. After talking to my school adviser and a lawyer, I still didn't get the answers. School suggested to go to see a lawyer and the lawyer said that school questions should be answered by them.
Furthermore, I want to maintain my F1 status. Therefore, I am planning to apply for TPS with EAD in November. So, if I get biometrics notification after about a month or so, then I should get my another EAD on Jan or Feb, 2016 (based on average time calculation and it will be 3 months). Meanwhile, I will prepare to join University according to my plan. I will also have 60 days of grace period to join another school after getting my new EAD. What do think guys? Is this a good idea? Please share your suggestions because it's bugging me.

2) For the EAD application through TPS, question 11 "which USCIS office and Dates" Do I have to write something like SRC (eg) but my adviser said CA service center and what should be the date, is it "valid from" date? Moreover, I chose c (19) for eligibility category. I am guessing I don't need to write my major like I did when I applied for OPT.

3) Finally, on i-821 application, page 6 (eligibility standards), I see "yes" or "no" questions. I have marked all "No" based on my background but if I have applied for Asylum, do I need to change my answer about political questions. Or if any one knows about a person who has filed for asylum should have any different answers on i-821 than a F1 student. Please let me know.

I really appreciate all of your time.

ans : Go ahead nice with the time calculations or else you can go for basic TPS now and then later EAD as per you need , you can also file for EAD after the dead line December this year , so be on the safe side as the process seems bit faster now, i cant say what that will be in later. Colleges say that all the time . you just need an assurance that they understand your situations and dont break your F1 status , just be courageous and explain the situation back home , 9000+ casualty out of earthquake is a big casualty. Another thing , you need to let the college once after you file the TPS (for more assurance)

2) For the EAD application through TPS, question 11 "which USCIS office and Dates" Do I have to write something like SRC (eg) but my adviser said CA service center and what should be the date, is it "valid from" date? Moreover, I chose c (19) for eligibility category. I am guessing I don't need to write my major like I did when I applied for OPT.

Ans Just go for the service center name and the date you will be fine .

3. 3) Finally, on i-821 application, page 6 (eligibility standards), I see "yes" or "no" questions. I have marked all "No" based on my background but if I have applied for Asylum, do I need to change my answer about political questions. Or if any one knows about a person who has filed for asylum should have any different answers on i-821 than a F1 student. Please let me know.
ans : if you had file asylum , you should go as that as well , however your present status will still be F1 .

I hope i tried to answer your Queries if not

You have to maintain F1 status throughout even if you get TPS with EAD. For that you have to maintain minimum credits (with TPS, you do not need to be full time student). If you do not maintain F1 and do not change to any other status before the end of TPS, you will be out of status. With 18 months of TPS and chances of extension, you have to change to other status (COS) like H1B, Green Card etc.
