Aged out of DACA, filed I-130. Any way to legally work in the meantime?

The person in question is 40+ and never qualified for DACA due to age (her other younger sibilings are on DACA). She's been in the US since she was 6 years old and her father is now a citizen. Due to a lack of resources and disabilities, her paperwork was never filed over the past years. I filed her I-130 in Dec 2019 but I have no idea when that will process (the processing times for Nebraska Processing Center change and only seem to get longer).

I understand the process for filing further paperwork after the I-130 is approved, but is there anything I can file for her while the I-130 is pending to get her a work permit? They're running out of resources and the father was recently diagnosed with cancer and now is unable to work. I've helped the dad file for food stamps and both have healthcare via covered California but are otherwise running out of resources.

N-400 form {"data":null,"error":{"developerMessage":null,"userMessage":null}} message

A few questions: I filed my N400 naturalization on March 23, 2020. Nearly one year later on Feb 2021 they sent me a notice that they'll reuse my biometrics from my green card application, but they won't refund the biometric fee! At the same time April 2021 showed up on my account as the expected completion date. Last week, the status was "17 days". Today the estimated time of completion has disappeared!!! Any idea what that means? More importantly - When I click on "View PDF" link under "N-400 Application for Naturalization", to see my actual N-400 form, I get " {"data":null,"error":{"developerMessage":null,"userMessage":null}} " message! The form is also missing under "Documents -> Your Uploads" tab! So, it appears that my N400 form is missing! What does that all mean, considering that it's impossible to file without N400 form! Finally, under profile, My name is incorrectly sp...

NVC Case FE Review note

Hi everyone, my family and I are under the F3 category and we just received a notice from NVC that our documents have been approved and that we are Documentarily Qualified. My only concern is this message that we received today in addition to the acceptance: ​ " [Name of petitioner] does not meet the minimum income requirement to sponsor the intending immigrants for this case. The consular officer will make a decision regarding this requirement at the time of the interview. For more information, please visit https://www.uscis.gov/i-864p . To avoid delays, an additional Affidavit of Support Form I-864 for a joint sponsor may be submitted." ​ We already have a petitioner and a household sponsor (the household sponsor's income is above the required level), but still unsure why we received this. Has anyone else received this message? All of our documents say "Approved" on NVC. Does this mean we have to find another sponsor? Can we show the consular officer our ...
