Legal Question in Immigration Law in Missouri

As a general rule, if a person is eligible for adjustment of status and not inadmissible (as it seems to be here), it should be safe to stop working after properly filing the application for adjustment of status. Applying for a work permit is optional. If and when approved, she will become a permanent resident. If denied, for whatever reason, she will not have a backup status (such as, H-1B) to return to. An absolutely risk-free option would be to wait until approval, which is not usually required if an applicant is 'approvable' and not 'inadmissible'.
