क्यामरुनका लागि अस्थायी संरक्षित स्थिति (TPS)

TPS के हो?

अस्थायी संरक्षित स्थिति (TPS) संयुक्त राज्य अमेरिकामा पहिल्यैदेखि रहेका व्यक्तिहरूका लागि एक प्रकारको अध्यागमन स्थिति हो। TPS भनेको सशस्त्र द्वन्द्व वा वातावरणीय विपत्तिजस्ता खतराका कारण आफ्नो देश फर्कन नसक्ने व्यक्तिहरूका लागि हो।

तपाईंसँग TPS छ भने तपाईं निम्न कार्य गर्न सक्नुहुन्छ:

• कानुनी रूपमा अमेरिकामा केही समय बस्छु।
• अमेरिकामा काम गर्न चाहिने अनुमति पत्रका लागि आवेदन दिनुहोस्
• Apply to travel outside the U.S.
• हिरासत र निर्वासनबाट सुरक्षित रहनुहोस्।

You will not get any of the benefits of TPS until your application is approved. TPS is temporary. It does not give you lawful permanent status, citizenship, or any permanent immigration status.

New applicants

Who can apply

You must meet the following requirements:

• Be a national of Cameroon or a person without nationality who lived in Cameroon for a long time before arriving in the USA
• Have lived only in the U.S. since October 5, 2023
• Did not take trips outside the U.S. after December 8, 2023 that might impact eligibility

You may not be eligible if you have committed certain crimes.

How to apply

You can apply for TPS Cameroon by filing Form I-821. You can file your application online or by mail with USCIS.

You must send documents showing proof of your identity, nationality, and date of entry. These are listed in the What to File section.

You must pay a fee if you are applying for TPS for the first time. You might be able to apply for a fee waiver if you can’t afford to pay the fee. Learn how to use the USCIS fee calculator.

It is important to apply as soon as possible. The last day to apply is June 7, 2025, but that is also when the U.S. government plans to end TPS for Cameroon.

What happens next

USCIS will review your application and send you a receipt notice. You can check the status of your application online by typing in your receipt number.

You may get a letter asking for more evidence. This could be your photo, fingerprints, signature, and other documents.

You will get a letter approving or denying your application. If you applied for a work permit, you will also get information about your application.

If you do not get TPS, you will get information on whether and how you can appeal their decision.

Current TPS holders

If you already have TPS for Cameroon under a previous designation, you must have re-registered by December 9, 2023, to extend your benefits to June 7, 2025.

श्रम स्वीकृति

Work permits are available to people with TPS and are known as an Employment Authorization Document (EAD). It shows employers that you are allowed to work in the USA.

You can apply for work authorization by filing Form I-765. It is recommended to apply at the same time you apply for TPS. Filing both forms together may help you get an EAD faster. You can also apply after.

DHS automatically extended the EADs for current TPS holders from the previous registration period to December 7, 2024. You will need to apply to renew your EAD to extend it to June 7, 2025.

यात्रा अनुमति

TPS भएका व्यक्तिहरूका लागि यात्रा अनुमतिहरू उपलब्ध छन्। यसलाई एड्भान्स्ड प्यारोल भनेर चिनिन्छ। यसले अध्यागमन अधिकारीहरूलाई देखाउँछ कि तपाईंलाई विदेश यात्रा गर्न र अमेरिका फर्कन अनुमति दिइएको छ।

तपाईंले फारम I-131 भरेर यात्रा अनुमतिको लागि आवेदन दिन सक्नुहुन्छ। यात्रा अनुमतिको लागि आवेदन गर्दा संघीय रजिस्टर सूचना निर्देशनहरू पालना गर।

Before traveling outside the USA, talk to a lawyer. Immigration rules may change and it
is important to know if it is safe to travel.

TPS को म्याद सकिएपछि के हुन्छ?

The U.S. government plans to end the TPS for Cameroon program on June 7, 2025. This is currently being challenged in the courts and could change.
