EAD question?

[EB1OR_TX]

My wife EAD has expired. Is it legal for her to be on US payroll and work outside US ?

The company lawyer said it is ok as long as she is not in the US while on US payroll, without work authorization. Is it true? I just want to get second opinion.

I don't think she can be on the US payroll. She can work in US but be on a non US payroll and that would be legal, not the other way round.

Thanks for your reply. I agree with your answer. We will ask her lawyer again about this.
