It will be a very rough life for her and her daughter, living in the USA, unable to work, and still having no way of adjusting status, even if she remarries. Her best bet would probably to go back home where she can properly work and care for her child.

I'm still not quite sure what it is you're looking for. If you go to www.uscis.gov, Immigration forms, I-765, Question #16. This is where she needs to have a status category to fall into in order to be eligible to obtain an EAD. Part 2 of the Instructions lists all the categories that are eligible. If she does not fall into any of these categories, then she isn't eligible for an EAD. It's that simple. Without the EAD, she can only work illegally. Many people do work illegally and do not get deported, but of course illegal work isn't great and the pay probably sucks. If by some chance she works illegally and gets discovered, as I said it probably wouldn't be fact that she was *working* illegally as much as the fact that she has no *legal status* here, which would get her deported.

I still don't know what documentation you are looking for. I doubt there is anything in writing that says she can't work without an EAD. People DO work without EADs....illegally. What you *can* find is the fact that she's isn't eligible to receive an EAD, which also means that she can't work legally.

This really isn't something she should file on her own.

She should seriously look into getting some help with this.
