Hello! Everyone, Please please do read the recent Q&A between USCIS AND NAFSA about TPS AND F-1 Status and it's possible effect on status. http://www.immigration-law.com... Mentioned that -"USCIS Allows Keeping and Working on Both F-1 and TPS" but when i read faqs I get a different picture that looks like F-1 status could be violated if we work with TPS EAD. Please drop your understanding and help me and all F1 student to understand this recent Q&A. USCIS is also soon going to release new federal register like for Syrian F1 student to work off campus to maintain status without violating called Special Student Relief. Here is the link- http://am.nafsa.org/sites/defa... http://www.immigration-law.com... - look on 09/03/2015

I talked with one lawyer and he was saying that even if we leave F1 status now . if we do change of status before TPS expires then we can go back to F1 again. so he explained that usually they will publish notice of extension four month ahead, if extension is not published then we can immidetly file for change of ststus within TPS . can you guys conform with u r lawyer with this senireo. thanks
