Greetings
I have a question whether B1/B2 tourist from Ukraine who has just arrived can file for TPS under Ukraine designation. At first glance looks like B1/B2 can file for TPS, but USCIS website says
Registration Period:Aug. 21, 2023 – April 19, 2025
Continuous Residence in U.S. Since: Aug. 16, 2023
Continuous Physical Presence in U.S. Since: Oct. 20, 2023

Does this apply for B1B2 because they can't physically have continuous residence in the US for that long.
 
TPS is for people who were already here (legally or illegally). It does not apply to people who arrive afterwards.

If you are a Ukrainian who was in Ukraine in February 2022, you might try to find someone to sponsor you for parole through Uniting for Ukraine.
