Came to the US on C1D visa, has asylum case pending. Got TPS, and now I am planning to travel out of US on travel document via TPS. What will be my status once I return back to the US? I heard that people came on C1D visa can't adjust status getting married to a US citizen, but leaving the country and coming back will change the status, it that true? I will appreciate your help.

A travel document doesn't mean you'll be "admitted" again to enter the United States when you return. It does happen, and most such cases lately concern DACA patients, but generally speaking, in order to be admitted again, you'll have to return with a valid visa. I doubt very much that you have such a visa or will have such a visa.

Then again, since you can't adjust from a CD/1 anyway, there's not much to lose. The worst thing that can happen is that you'll have to wait for your CR-1/IR-1 visa, which can take about a year. Well, not true. The worst thing that can happen is that you have overstayed for over 180 days by the time you leave the United States, and will trigger a 3 (or 10-year) bar when leaving.

There is no room in this country for hyphenated Americanism. When I refer to hyphenated Americans, I do not refer to naturalized Americans. Some of the very best Americans I have ever known were naturalized Americans, Americans born abroad. But a hyphenated American is not an American at all . . . . The one absolutely certain way of bringing this nation to ruin, of preventing all possibility of its continuing to be a nation at all, would be to permit it to become a tangle of squabbling nationalities, an intricate knot of German-Americans, Irish-Americans, English-Americans, French-Americans, Scandinavian-Americans or Italian-Americans, each preserving its separate nationality, each at heart feeling more sympathy with Europeans of that nationality, than with the other citizens of the American Republic . . . . There is no such thing as a hyphenated American who is a good American. The only man who is a good American is the man who is an American and nothing else.
