In some embodiments, an apparatus for video coding includes processing circuitry. The processing circuitry is configured to receive a current block of a current picture. The current block has a width and a height. The processing circuitry is further configured to determine whether a first temporal motion candidate at one of a right edge and bottom edge of a co-located block of the current block can be used according to the width and/or the height of the current block in the current picture, and in response to determining that the first temporal motion candidate can be used, check the availability of the first temporal motion candidate at the one of the right edge and bottom edge of the co-located block of the current block. The processing circuitry is further configured to add the first temporal motion candidate to a motion candidate list when the first temporal motion candidate is available.
