@admire I am not in touch with any lawyers but one thing I know for sure is if you want to apply for TPS you might want to enter US as soon as possible and in your case speak to a lawyer before filing. Every case is different and its really upto USCIS to determine if you are eligible. I would also ask on other thread there is few guys who seem to have more knowledge regarding this than I do. If I get in touch with any lawyers I would be happy to ask that question.
