I spoke to my supervisor since I only have two weeks before I expire. She told me if I get approved, a notice will suffice but the DACA notice specifically says it can't be used for employment authorization - I haven't told her this but I knew I wouldn't get approved in time anyways. They will have to terminate me by the time I expire and rehire me as soon as I get approved. It's good to know that they're being supportive but it's hard since there is no way of telling how long this will take.

Why are you guys being terminated? I'm just going on an unpaid leave. Our firm's lawyer said that's fine.

It depends on your employer and I'm employed at a public institution which makes me technically a state-employee, therefore they have to be more strict.

I sent USCIS an email message through ELIS like almost 2 weeks ago and they gave me the generic response that everyone gets and told me I could inquire after 105 days. I'll be reaching 105 next Tuesday, but I plan on jumping the gun and start submitting inquiries everywhere possible tomorrow.

I am looking to work at any type of work to pay the bills. I'm grateful that I have a family friend who is willing to hire me to work at her shop. It is a cut in pay but I am grateful for anything right now since this thing could last months.
It sucks that your employer couldn't put you on a leave of absence. Hopefully you're eligible for re-hiring when you get approved. What's your timeline?

Carnivore, you cannot be on a company's payroll if you have no authorization to work.

Update on my situation: they decided to keep me on stipend (I work at a nonprofit). I'm going to take a huge pay cut because they cannot pay me at the same rate, but at least I'll have something come in. Once I get my approval, I can come back to my regular rate. I hope I get my permit soon, that pay cut is big. Guess I got lucky after all: this is the first time I work in a nonprofit... I probably couldn't do this type of thing at a regular company.

You can be off the payroll and not be terminated.

Lol it all depends on what the company is willing to do. Some companies are more nervous than others, or whatever.
