For example , if u r h4 and apply for tps and ead and approved you are legally allowed to work. Now the question is if it terminate you will go back to h4 if your spouse has maintained h1. But if your spouse gets GC through employment, DV, asylum you will automatically get it as well.

@Nepali8: I suggested the same thing. Let us analyse what USCIS website says: When the Secretary terminates a country's TPS designation through a separate Federal Register notice, beneficiaries return to the same immigration status they maintained before TPS, [WHICH MEANS IF YOU ARE F2 , YOU WILL CONTINUE TO BE A F2 OR F1 WHATEVER YOUR STATUS WAS BEFORE] if any (unless that status has since expired or been terminated), or to any other lawfully obtained immigration status they received while registered for TPS. [ WHICH MEANS THAT IF YOU CHANGE YOUR STATUS TO (SAY)F1 FROM F2 BEFORE YOUR TPS EXPIRES, YOU WILL NOW BE F1] I think its fairly straight forward. Someone said it before that TPS is not a status related thing. It is only to assure that you can stay until TPS expires.

Another interesting thing is: You can only apply for TPS and not for EAD. Some people may just want to stay and not work. Correct me if i got it wrong.

Guys! Read this TPS document for Syria to have information regarding TPS and H1B/F1/Asylum etc. READ THE LAST PAGE OF THIS PDF DOCUMENT. I hope this information applies to Nepal too but not 100% sure. So, talk to a lawyer if you are in doubt. http://www.uscis.gov/sites/def... Quote: Question: If an H-1B nonimmigrant obtains an EAD based on his or her TPS, can he or she continue to maintain his or her H-1B nonimmigrant status? Answer: A TPS beneficiary is granted an “open market employment” EAD. This means that the EAD gives him or her unrestricted access to employment in the United States. The fact that an H-1B nonimmigrant is granted this type of an EAD does not cause the alien to violate his or her nonimmigrant status, if he or she continues to act in accordance with the requirements of his or her approved H-1B nonimmigrant petition. However, the nonimmigrant will violate his or her H- 1B status if s/he uses the EAD to engage in employment for a separate employer and leaves the employer listed on the approved I-129 petition.

Anyone can apply. Check the posting for Haiti 1. I am a Haitian in the U.S. on a temporary work/visit/study (etc.) visa and I don't believe I qualify for TPS. Is there anything I can do to extend my stay? If you were in the United States on January 12, 2010, regardless of your immigration status on that date, you may be eligible to apply for TPS. More information on TPS eligibility for Haiti can be found on our Temporary Protected Status-Haiti page. If you currently have a valid nonimmigrant status (student, temporary worker, visit, etc.) and would like to extend your stay, please review the information provided in the "Working in the U.S." or "Visit the U.S." sections of our website. You may also review the instructions on Form I-539, Application to Change/Extend Nonimmigrant Status, and Form I-129, Application for Temporary Worker (the form you would use to extend your nonimmigrant status depends on your current nonimmigrant status). http://blog.uscis.gov/2010/03/...
