Is it legal for a company to furlough you until your EAD arrives?

I'm on O-1B visa that is expiring on September. I have a pending AOS through marriage (70 days and counting) so I'm waiting for my combo card to continue working. I never required an EAD to work with my employer hence I'm applying for a fresh EAD card (i had one as a student that expired a decade ago tho). While my boss is 100% on board writing a letter to expedite my EAD (explaining how my work interruption can cause the company thousands of dollars), we're also thinking what to do if my card STILL doesn't arrive on time.

My boss told me that they can furlough me until my EAD arrives.

Is this my best option right now?

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...
