I'm currently under TPS and have been for 16 years. Im wondering if i file bankruptcy will it affect me obtaining my residency

Interesting question.  TPS doesn't lead to residency.  If you are applying for residency through your spouse, and you jointly file bakruptcy, that would affect your spouse's eligibility to file the affidavit of support.  An experienced immigration lawyer will be able to sort this out.  Good luck!
