Pending i485, expired EAD (2 weeks ago), thinking about renewing and getting i131
Hello,
i have a quite complicated case. I have filled for my mother (Peruvian citizen), who is currently in the states with a Visitor B-2 visa. We filled last year on May 2016 and her i485 is pending. We also filled concurrently her i765 but NO i131 at the time. She received her EAD on august. It is August 30th and her EAD has expired. We completely forgot about this and she has been working 2 weeks after her EAD expired now. I talked to her over the phone (as I am out of state atm) and told her to call her manager, explain the situation and not work anymore because I do not want jeopardize her current i485. In the meantime, we want to fill out a i131 because she wants to visit family over in Peru and we haven't filled one. Mainly because we thought her i485 would get approved in 6months. So here are some questions i have at this moment and i hope you guys would help me solve this situation:
*Disclaimer: i do not have a lawyer nor anyone helping me, I did this all by myself.
1. Thinking about renewing her EAD. I know we are very late. Her EAD is currently expired, but can we still renew it ? If so, do we have to pay or is it free since her i485 is pending?
2. Her i131, same deal, is it free or do I have to pay the fee?
3. Will these 2 weeks of "illegal" work have negative impacts on her currently pending i485 application? You guys have any experience with this?
thanks in advance.
