OK, and what is her status, and if she's there legally, when does her visa/status expire?

She has an EAD and she’s been working as a nurse.

How did she get an EAD? And when does it expire?

She filed for  vawa because she was married to an abuser, it’s been 4 yrs and all she has so far is an EAD that expires in 2029. We just wanna know what forms to file and the cost cos the entire vawa process is making her depressed because it limits her with her job.

Ah, ok. That's good, so she could adjust status through you, although it'll be at least a year. Follow the guide at the top of the page (this is aimed at spouses, but it's the same process for a parent) - 

 

 

But why does it limit her? With an EAD she should be able to work as if she had a green card? And if it's been 4 years then it might be worth asking on the long running VAWA thread where the good folks there will be able to give you advice on how to hurry things along - 

 

 

Good luck.
