Types of Temporary Status
DEFERRED ACTION FOR CHILDHOOD ARRIVALS (DACA)
An American immigration policy that allowed some individuals who entered the country as minors, and had either entered or remained in the country illegally, to receive a renewable two-year period of deferred action from deportation and to be eligible for a work permit.
B1 VISA
A B1 Visitor Visa is a nonimmigrant visa for persons who want to enter the United States temporarily for business.
B2 VISITOR VISA
An adjustment of status (AOS) enables an eligible applicant to become a lawful permanent resident of the United States without having to go abroad and apply for an immigrant visa.
F-1 STUDENT VISA
The F-1 Student Visa is a nonimmigrant visa for those wishing to attend a university or college, high school, private elementary school, seminary, conservatory, language training program, or other academic institution in the United States.
TEMPORARY PROTECTIVE STATUS (TPS)
Foreign nationals from certain countries around the world have been granted Temporary Protected Status by the United States. When the Secretary of Homeland Security grants TPS to a country, the intentions are generally to protect foreign nationals from dangerous conditions in their country of origin.
HUMANITARIAN PAROLE
Parole allows an individual who may be inadmissible or otherwise ineligible for admission into the United States to be in the United States for a temporary period for urgent humanitarian reasons or significant public benefit. You may apply for humanitarian parole if you have a compelling emergency and there is an urgent humanitarian reason or significant public benefit to allowing you to temporarily enter the United States. Anyone can file an application for humanitarian parole.
UNITING FOR UKRAINE
Uniting for Ukraine provides a pathway for displaced Ukrainian citizens and their immediate family members who are outside the United States to come to the United States and stay temporarily for a two-year period of parole.
PROCESS FOR CUBANS,HAITIANS, NICARAGUANS AND VENEZUELANS
DHS has implemented processes through which nationals of Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua, and Venezuela, and their qualifying immediate family members, may request to come to the United States in a safe and orderly way.
