Travelers may wish to avoid buying plane tickets until they have obtained an ESTA (or a valid visa, in case the ESTA is not approved). ESTA applications may be submitted at any time prior to travel. The processing of an ESTA can take up to 72 hours.

USCIS indicates that Form I-131, Application for Travel Document, could take 6-10 months to adjudicate. Ukrainians who file Form I-131 at the same time as Form I-821 Application for Temporary Protected Status may receive a Form I-512T, TPS travel document more quickly.
The travel document usually arrives within 150 days (sometimes longer) after submitting your application. You can't leave the country until you have your approved travel document in hand, so you should expect to spend the 3–5 months after submitting your green card application in the United States.
TPS beneficiaries have also been eligible in the past for advance parole, which provides permission to travel abroad and return to the United States, but they must apply for it separately.
To apply for TPS travel authorization or advance parole, you must file Form I-131, Application for Travel Document. If you are filing Form I-131 together with Form I-821, send your forms to the address listed for your country.
You can travel within the US while your TPS application is pending.
The average processing time is around 4-6 months.
