Yes, you still have options even if you entered illegally. Defensive asylum can sometimes be raised in removal proceedings. You should speak to an attorney immediately about whether you qualify.

People in your position can sometimes apply for asylum, withholding of removal, or protection under the Convention Against Torture, even if they crossed unlawfully.
The fact that you didn’t file earlier will complicate things, but it doesn’t automatically disqualify you. You’ll need to show strong evidence of the danger you’d face in Turkey.
Getting legal help right away is very important.

You’re not without hope, but deportation cases move fast. Get an immigration lawyer as soon as possible.
