We do know that it was not an immigrant visa (green card). The non-immigrant visas that allow employment are very restrictive as to what kind of employment the visa holder can seek. For example, the job an H1 visa holder can have must require a bachelor's degree. H1 visas do not need extending before 3 years, though, so it could not have been that. What else is there? F-1 (student visa) holders can only work on campus and must maintain full-time student status. Student visas do not need extending. They are valid well after the holder graduates from college. There are also special visas for managers and such and for religious workers. Somehow, I don't think this was her case. Most likely, she worked illegally.
What we do know is that we are all better off for her presence here. May God bless her, and may He bless all immigrants who work hard and obey the law and make our country better for it, especially those who serve!
Amen!
Now here is a LEGAL immigrant who is truly an American!
