Hi! Everyone, Just want to share some findings related TPS to F1 (Revert back) based on Massachusetts Law Reform Institute Q&A, which was published on 2/11/10. This question and answers grab my attention and I hope that it is helpful for many F-1 TPS status people. "26. I am on a student visa. What are my options? Nonimmigrant F‐1 students from Haiti who may be unable to continue to cover the cost to engage in a full course of study may need off‐campus employment authorization. An F‐1 student who can demonstrate that he or she is from Haiti can apply for employment authorization to work off‐campus. The student needs to be recommended for employment by the Designated School Official (DSO) and should submit Form I‐765, Application for Employment Authorization along with the Form I‐20 with approval from the DSO to the USCIS Service Center with jurisdiction. Please refer to the Form I‐765 for instructions. The filing fee for Form I‐765 is $340. You can also apply for TPS and it will not affect your student visa status. Once TPS expires, you will revert back to the immigration status you had before TPS unless it has also expired." (Massachusetts Law Reform Institute, 2010) So, it is better to keep F-1 I20 active taking at least one course rather than terminating or closing I20. References: Massachusetts Law Reform Institute.
