You may qualify for Temporary Protected Status (TPS) if your country has been designated due to the war. This status would allow you to live and work legally in the U.S. for a set period.

If returning home would put you at risk, explore applying for asylum within one year of your arrival, unless exceptions apply. TPS may also be an option if your country is currently listed by the Department of Homeland Security. Both pathways could allow you to stay in the U.S. while remaining lawfully protected.

Your situation might fit under several humanitarian categories, such as asylum, TPS, or even a student visa extension depending on your school’s program. Asylum protects those who fear persecution if they return home, while TPS offers temporary relief during unsafe conditions. Each has its own eligibility requirements and timelines. It’s best to speak with an immigration attorney to determine which option is most suitable for your case.
