Renewing your passports should have no effect on the work permit applications, though I do think you will need to list your current passport info on the I-765 (the work permit application). This should not affect eligibility to renew the work permits. Take care, Jason

thanks very much Jason just needed to know to some answers to this question please.
Our work permit expires in Feb and we are planning to return back to our country in May 2025.
Can we renew our passports in October of this year and then apply for work permit renewal in November of this year ? Wil there be questions or rejections ?
We need work permits to actively work and pay bills until we exit the country. Your input in this matter will be highly appreciated.

Once you reach 180 days on the asylum clock, which you did, since you have a work permit, causing additional delay has no effect. So you can renew the EAD normally, even if you now cause a delay by requesting time to find a lawyer. Take care, Jason

I got referred to immigration court. I dont have any attorney yet. At master hearing judge gave me time to find a lawyer. I know if i didnt have a work permit yet thats ground for stopping clock but since i already have ead. Will asking continuance for finding lawyer result in problems while renewing ead or does asylum work permit clock exist in renewing or only first time applicants.

It’s obviously not right…

But I don’t know any law prevents that…Immigration status discrimination is not a protected ground…so if they don;t like it (which most don’t…) they will just fire you because it’s at-will…

I am just worried that if I am constantly fired from a job…how am I supposed to come up with ($5500+$4000) money to pay my lawyers…

I am sorry to hear that. I recommend you talk to an employment lawyer, as this may be illegal. Take care, Jason
