A method and a user equipment (UE) for timing alignment is provided. The method includes maintaining a Timing Advance (TA) value as a first TA value; receiving, from a Base Station (BS), a TA command during a Random Access (RA) procedure; applying the TA command to set the TA value to a second TA value included in the TA command in a case that a first timing alignment timer is not running; determining whether a contention resolution for the RA procedure is successful; and when the contention resolution is not successful, setting the TA value to the first TA value in a case that a Configured Grant-based Small Data Transmission (CG-SDT) procedure is ongoing.
