@suvaratri nothing to do with being out of status. have seen a couple of out of status guys (including mine) get approved and receive our TPS approval letter and EAD. could be the way you fill up your form (we applied through lawyer ) and continuous presence evidence (since june 24) you submitted or some other discrepancies. unless you have some SERIOUS criminal issues, you should be fine. its only matter of time. hausala rakha ra chaati thulo banau.
