Ok so she is not legal to work but why all the name calling? after all this time she should have sought counsel. But I ask myself-is it the husband the one keeping her under? Many countries wifey has no say-so and ask nada,,, customs. In either case- respect folks. in another note- f they came with 1 million dollars cash to buy your home because they liked it- you would sell -no questions asked.

Exactly - this poster has a habit of making no sense ...
I do - you just do not like what I post, but will agree sometimes I do miss things. Still no room for name calling. Immigration is not so simple, and many pay these people who promise to navigate you through the system for thousands of dollars and they feed you bunk-
If my hubby was working doing his thing and I am sitting home all day for yrs - I would have figured something out for myself. That is what I am saying. But maybe her hubby is afraid to lose his -- whatever and will not allow her to peruse a way to make her own money. Crap she can knit and go on the internet n sell blankies.

OP might look into work VISA after yesterday's change. Problem is it temporary not law and up to you if to give government information might be used later.
She is a legal NON-IMMIGRANT with intent to immigrate. It sucks, but she has to wait her turn in line. And the line only gets longer.
It's not just the US immigration policy which contributes to the problem, it's the people from her own country of origin who insist on only hiring (barely qualified or unqualified) people from the home country, increasing the backlog.
Unlike a lot of others, I don't feel the U.S. should increase it's visa allocation numbers. If she wants to wait less time, then she should talk to her own government and have them crack down on the diploma mills which allow the bogus H1B people to enter the U.S. and work for former bogus H1B's who obtained residency and citizenship.
The Indians have done this to themselves. Those who obtained their green cards on (what I consider to be) fraud, now have become citizens who have raised their children in the U.S. They taught them to go to college and become the best of the best in the U.S. Now their children have graduated in the requisite field (STEM) and find that they are only able to obtain a job which pays 40k a year instead of the 80k they thought because now they themselves are competing with their cousins in India (awaiting in the sibling of a citizen list) who are in the U.S. with a diploma mill certificate working for 40k a year as an H1B (and also on this list waiting for an employment based card).
Does this mean the U.S. needs immigration reform?
Sure it does.
But to me, reform means something other than increasing H1B allocations and ignoring enforcement provisions.
Great post, real issue here, surely it has ruined the IT job market here. I know someone working in Bangalore, getting better pay (if you compare the living cost and salary of both places) than USA.
I have also the same problem like you, hope this information can help you.

It does not take a Green Card to be legally able to work.
No it doesn't, it just takes the correct VISA.
