So I live in the United States with a work permit that allows me to work and live and do other basic things legally. I started working at UPS in June last year because I got laid off my other job when the pandemic started. My work permit expires in 2 weeks, and I already applied for my renewal permit but my lawyer said that it will take a very very long time because the immigration services are busy right now. It might take about 5 to 6 months, or maybe less, but my permit will definitely for sure come after my current one expires. I am wondering if I will get terminated at UPS when my permit expires, or if there is a way to explain to them that I already applied for my permit but that I will get it after my current permit expires. I really need this job because I can pay for many things including college.
Work permit expiring: will i get fired?

Dishonesty is one of the cardinal sins around here that will get u shown the door real quick. With that in mind be forthcoming about your situation and hope for the best.
Question: Why did you wait to renew your work visa?
That's what has allowed you to legally come here to the states and work in the first place. Without it you will have much bigger issues than UPS if you intend to stay in the country and work (a legit job).

Your renewal permit is pending. I highly doubt UPS will fire you for that. But you should let someone know. UPS has a ton of employees. I would imagine they have a system in place for a situation like this.
"Certain EAD renewal applicants will be able to work for 180 days after their EAD expires
Under the new rule, applicants in certain eligibility categories applying to renew an EAD can continue to work for up to 180 days while their renewal application is pending, as long as:
They apply to renew before their current EAD expires AND
They are applying in the same category that they previously applied under."

I wouldn’t say anything. If you tell them and get fired, it’s the same outcome as them finding out on their own
I had to wait and the process is taking much longer because of the many immigrants flooding at the border right now. None of this is my fault, the current immigration system is a disaster.

You should leave and come back through Mexico. You can stay forever!
no joke, i can do that fr. my lawyer said that its taking longer to renew my card because the current administration is giving priority to the immigrants at the border since they're 'refugees'
Appreciate you putting up with and working through the official process.
