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.

Go to the USCIS TPS Ethiopia page for more details. You can also call the USCIS TPS Hotline 202-272-1533 with questions.

New applicants

Who can apply

You must meet the following requirements to apply:

  • Be a national of Ethiopia or a person without nationality who lived in Ethiopia for a long time before arriving in the U.S.
  • Have lived only in the U.S. since April 11, 2024
  • Did not take trips outside the U.S. after June 13, 2024 that might impact eligibility

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

TPS आवेदकहरूका लागि सार्वजनिक शुल्क लागू हुँदैन । तपाईं आफू योग्य भएका सबै सरकारी कार्यक्रमहरू प्रयोग गर्न सक्नुहुन्छ।

How to apply

You can apply for TPS Ethiopia 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.

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 December 12, 2025, but that is also the last day TPS for Ethiopia is currently available.

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. If you do not get a receipt within 3 weeks of filing, you can call the USCIS Contact Center.

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 Ethiopia under a previous designation, you must have re-registered by June 14, 2024, to continue your benefits through December 12, 2025.

श्रम स्वीकृति

TPS भएका व्यक्तिहरूका लागि वर्क परमिटहरू उपलब्ध छन् र यी रोजगार प्राधिकरण कागजात (EAD) को रूपमा चिनिन्छन्। यसले रोजगारदाताहरूलाई देखाउँछ कि तपाईंलाई संयुक्त राज्य अमेरिकामा काम गर्न अनुमति छ।

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

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।

संयुक्त राज्य अमेरिका बाहिर यात्रा गर्नुअघि वकिलसँग कुरा गर्नुहोस्। अध्यागमन नियमहरू परिवर्तन हुन सक्छन् र यात्रा गर्न सुरक्षित छ कि छैन भनेर जान्न महत्त्वपूर्ण हुन्छ।

TPS को म्याद सकिएपछि के हुन्छ?

DHS will review country conditions at least 60 days before it is set to expire. They will decide whether to continue it further. If TPS Ethiopia expires, you will have the same immigration status you had before getting temporary protected status.

यदि तपाईंसँग TPS बाहेक अर्को कानुनी आप्रवासन स्थिति छैन भने, तपाईं कागजातविहीन हुनुहुनेछ र आफ्नो काम गर्ने अनुमति गुमाउनुहुनेछ। यदि तपाईं कानुनी हैसियत बिना बस्नुभयो भने, तपाईंलाई हिरासतमा लिइने र देश निकाला गरिने जोखिम हुनेछ।
