244(b)(1)(B) of the Immigration and
Nationality Act (INA), 8 U.S.C.
1254a(b)(1)(B), the Secretary is
authorized to designate a foreign state
(or any part thereof) for TPS upon
finding that the foreign state has
experienced an earthquake resulting in
a substantial, but temporary, disruption
of living conditions.
This designation allows eligible
Nepalese nationals (and aliens having
no nationality who last habitually
resided in Nepal) who have
continuously resided in the United
States since June 24, 2015, and have
been continuously physically present in
the United States since June 24, 2015 to
be granted TPS. This Notice also
describes the other eligibility criteria
applicants must meet.
Individuals who believe they may
qualify for TPS under this designation
may apply within the 180-day
registration period that begins on June
24, 2015 and ends on December 21,
2015. They may also apply for
Employment Authorization Documents
(EAD) and for travel authorization.
Through this Notice, DHS also sets forth
the procedures for nationals of Nepal (or
aliens having no nationality who last
habitually resided in Nepal) to apply for
TPS, EADs, and travel authorization
with U.S. Citizenship and Immigration
Services (USCIS).
DATES: This designation of Nepal for
TPS is effective on June 24, 2015 and
will remain in effect through December
24, 2016. The 180-day registration

What is Temporary Protected Status (TPS)?
• TPS is a temporary immigration status
granted to eligible nationals of a country
designated for TPS under the INA, or to
eligible persons without nationality who last
habitually resided in the designated country.
• During the TPS designation period, TPS
beneficiaries are eligible to remain in the
United States, may not be removed, and are
authorized to work and to obtain EADs, so
long as they continue to meet the
requirements of TPS.
• TPS beneficiaries may be granted travel
authorization as a matter of discretion.
• The granting of TPS does not result in or
lead to lawful permanent resident status.
• To qualify for TPS, beneficiaries must
meet the eligibility standards at INA section
244(c)(2).
• When the Secretary terminates a
country’s TPS designation through a separate
Federal Register notice, beneficiaries return
to the same immigration status they
maintained before TPS, if any (unless that
status has since expired or been terminated),
or to any other lawfully obtained
immigration status they received while
registered for TPS.
What authority does the Secretary have
to designate Nepal for TPS?
Section 244(b)(1) of the INA, 8 U.S.C.
1254a(b)(1), authorizes the Secretary,
