Sachin:

I was also so tempted to file TPS, however, my lawyer always said not to file for TPS while asylum case is pending. His logic was, you cannot get two immigration benefits at a given time. So according to him, if I had filed TPS, my pending asylum case will go in administrative hold, meaning, the scheduled interview date will be canceled and new date for interview will be scheduled, which in turn, will be pending.
My master hearing happened in August 2015 and my Individual hearing is scheduled for July 2016. Thank god, he always and STRONGLY, said that filing TPS will kill my asylum case for uncertain time. And I followed his decision, which, I never liked to do. Now I feel, I did the right thing listening to my lawyer.

Good luck for you man!
