Question

Hi my question is if I'm a minor at the moment without parents or guardians in the united states what for of legal status can I apply since I am completely alone in this country an only count with family friends help.



Answer

A person must meet a category of eligibility, pursuant to U.S. immigration laws, to apply for legal status (non-immigrant or immigrant visa).

It depends on how you entered the country, how old you are, if you have a U.S. citizen parent, etc.

If you entered illegally, then you cannot change your status. If you entered legally but are a minor, it will be difficult to get a student visa without a family member who is willing to financially support you & pay for your education, if required. You would be too young for any type of employment based visa.

However, without knowing more about your situation, I cannot advise you further.
