TPS extension is decided by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), not Congress. The extension/termination period mentioned above, 6 - 18 months, is correct. Recent extensions (South Sudan, Syria) have been for 18 months. As for terminations, Haiti and El Salvador have received 18 months to get affairs in order whereas Sudan got just 12 months (terminated in September of last year).
Lastly, the decision to extend or terminate is announced 60 days before TPS end date. So for Nepal, we will get a decision by April 24, 2018.
