Technology Partnership Aids Applicants of Nepal TPS and Earthquake Relief Effort

    FULLERTON, CA, July 22, 2015 /24-7PressRelease/ -- CitizenPath Immigration Document Services has reduced its application preparation fee for Nepali Temporary Protected Status and will donate half the proceeds to support One Stop Portal's relief effort in Nepal.

The U.S. Department of Homeland Security recently designated Nepal with Temporary Protected Status (TPS) to help the country recover from a devastating 7.8-magnitude earthquake that killed more than seven thousand people and left an estimated two million more homeless. Beneficiaries of the TPS program receive authorization to live and obtain employment in the United States during the designated period. An estimated 20,000 Nepali nationals living in the U.S. are eligible for TPS.

CitizenPath has combined the knowledge of experienced immigration attorneys and internet technology to provide a web-based service that makes preparing the Nepali TPS application easy and inexpensive. The service simplifies complicated immigration forms similar to how TurboTax helps its customers with tax preparation. Anyone can try CitizenPath's TPS preparation service at no cost by visiting www.citizenpath.com/i-821/.

"Our service is an exceptional solution for immigrants that have straight-forward immigration cases," says Russ Leimer, co-founder and chief marketing officer. When CitizenPath does find that an applicant's case requires the attention of an attorney, no fee is charged. In fact CitizenPath does not charge a fee at all until the applicant is finished and satisfied.

By using coupon code "SupportOSP" Nepal TPS applicants will receive a discounted price of $39.99. CitizenPath will donate 50% of each sale to One Stop Portal. Potential applicants can learn more at www.citizenpath.com/nepal-tps/.

One Stop Portal is a nonprofit created by Nepali diaspora in the United States with a mission to provide easy-to-access information about the Nepal earthquake and promote the relief effort. The organization was founded by several Nepali youth now employed at major U.S. technology companies or studying in U.S. graduate programs. Bikalpa Neupane, the lead founder of One Stop Portal says, "I immediately saw the need to coordinate relief efforts and volunteers, so I decided to come up with a website that consolidates everything in one place, for help now and to archive the results for future research and study. Our partnership with CitizenPath helps us achieve this goal." Information about the Nepali earthquake and where donations are needed most desperately can be found at www.onestopportal.org.
