More details to this question:
On April 14, 2022 my Country Cameroon was added to the list of Countries to be granted TPS. My wife is coming to the US with an F1 (student visa) for a 32-week Intensive English Course. Please Help me... my question is since she will not be eligible for TPS, can she benefit from my TPS status to stay in the US...? There is war in my country... I really don't want to let her go back.. THANK YOU

As you know, TPS is individual, and every TPS holder must qualify. If your wife is here, perhaps her F-1 schooling can be extended or she can transfer to another school, or she can become eligible for some other type of working visa or longer duration visa. As you are a TPS holder and presumably have employment authorization, you may be able to support her financially past her 32 week intensive English course.
