Torn between two options for my "inmigration status" [Help]

I came to California in 2016 on a student (F1) visa, finished school (2 years), and then worked for a year as part of my OPT. I filed my taxes in a timely manner and received my refund. Currently, I am out of status and am torn between two options, so I was hoping you guys here could help me. I don’t plan on leaving since my home country is a complete mess.

Option A – Try to find a job with my SSN that doesn’t ask me for a work permit and, if hired, pay taxes every year. My SSN has the “only allowed to work with permission of the DHS” restriction. My main concern is that this will cause me trouble in the future if I get the chance to apply for residency. I know everything would be ok with the IRS since I filed taxes every year, but not with immigration.

Option B – I have a fake SSN with a fake name. I bought this from someone. Plan B was to work with this fake SSN without filing taxes. My main concern with this option is that I’ll screw the real owner of that number (I don’t know if its made up or it actually belongs to someone) by earning a wage and not filling taxes.

Which one would you recommend?

Thanks in advance,

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 ...
