> Section 1255 generally requires a lawful admission before a person can obtain LPR status. Sanchez was not lawfully admitted, and his TPS does not alter that fact. He therefore cannot become a permanent resident of this country.

Do you have any evidence this man entered the USA illegally? Seems to me he obviously had a 90 day tourist visa when he entered the country at least. Sounds like lawful admission to me.
