Hi if 240 days are over and the extension was filed well in time before visa and i94 expiry, can we stay in US and not work? Received RFE and filed in premium already now so should be getting response in few days, but 240 days just got over and till we wait for premium response is it lawful or unlawful to stay in US bot not work (will be on loss of pay)

You can stay in US but cannot work if your extension is still pending after 240 days.
