Refugee status is conferred on those who are of special humanitarian concern to the United States. This typically applies to people who are outside of their country, and fear returning back home because they will likely face serious harm. People can only seek refugee status if they are not currently in the United States.
Asylum status is for those people who meet the definition of a refugee in that they have reasonable fear of harm if they return to their home country, but are already in the United States or are seeking admission to the U.S. at a port of entry.
