If you were a member of the National TPS Alliance before July 7, 2025, you qualify as a Nepal TPS holder and, under the judge’s partial stay, will keep your work permit, protection from deportation, and all other TPS benefits while the case is pending.
By asking both sides to address the Supreme Court’s scope‑of‑relief test from Trump v. CASA, Inc., the Judge signals she’s inclined toward a partial stay just for those members.
The government further explains that relief would extend only to those who were bona fide members of the National TPS Alliance at the time the complaint was filed—July 7, 2025.
Yesterday, the judge sent a question asking the government to spell out exactly what TPS rights the people who sued will keep if only they get a stay. She wants to know things like
How will those named keep their work permits?
How will they avoid deportation while the case goes on?
Will they still get health care and other benefits tied to TPS?
How will DHS track and confirm it applies only to those individuals?
In plain terms, she’s making sure the government can show how it will give full TPS protections to just the plaintiffs named in this lawsuit.
