I thought that this was quite interesting, because "You can't work on an expired EAD !" alarmist stuff is all over the immigration boards. She admitted that she wasn't even sure how the "offense" would be classified, or if it would even be considered an offense at all. In any event, I asked her if she had a suggestion regarding what to do about his about-to-expire EAD, and she said, "Well, does he think his employer will notice?" She went on to say that working between EADs, particularly when the application has been sent in and the check cashed, is not a deportable offense, and it will not affect a pending I-485. Unfortunately, we're stuck in the FBI name check delay, so it could be years, apparently. In retrospect, we were certainly blindly optimistic we thought that his permanent resident card would arrive well before the EAD (and indeed the AP document) was due to expire, as we had a successful AOS interview in May 2006. This is 90 days from the Received date in the upper left corner of the I-797.) His EAD expired February 9, and we didn't send in the renewal application until mid-December. (As most people on this forum seem to know, local offices stopped issuing iEADs in fall 2006, and no one at the suboffices will even attempt to help you if it's been less than 90 days since the renewal app was received. I called her in a panic because my husband's EAD was about to expire, and a trip to the local suboffice to see about an interim EAD proved fruitless.
I had a lengthy chat with a good friend's sister, who works for immigration in some kind of enforcement capacity (she travels a lot and carries a gun-one of those jobs), although she used to work in "information," as she called it.
