I need help involving immigration and work here in the USA
I am an Iranian national asylum seeker. My case is currently being processed, and I apply for Work Authorization using my political asylum in order to work here. however back in January my lawyer advised me to apply for DACA- which is a policy that help kids who were brought over here from being deported. This was in January, now it is june and my file has not been approved yet. The reason being I filed under DACA and not under my normal political asylum.
My employment authorization expired on June 8, so technically im not supposed to be working right now. My company just changed payrolls, so I had to submit a new i9 form and for the EAD expiration date I just put N/A
What do I do? I'm FUCKED. Do I submit a new i765 for work authorization using political asylum? It will take one-two months to get my card. In the meantime I will probably be let go of my job and that is stressing me out. God knows when my DACA and EAD will get approved.
