My friend immigration issue?
He came to the USA at the age of 6 in the year 2000 and currently does have a TPS (temporary protected status) designated for Haiti. He will be turning 21 next month and based on his situation would like to know how to best apply for a green card. Is there any particular forms/benefits he can receive based on his circumstance besides just filling out the I-485 form. Thank you

T in TPS stands for temporary. Green cards are permanent. He can't get a green card. As soon as Haiti has recovered from the earthquake, he goes home.

Your friend is allowed to stay in the United States until the situation in his home country improves and he can return. There's no path from TPS to a Green Card.
