I've officiated football for over 30 years, now in my 26th on the college level. I've worked NCAA playoffs at the Division II and III level. In addition, I've coached at the scholastic level and have been an educator for over 35 years. I have no interest whatsoever in being an NFL official! Ever!
If a pass is caught behind the line of scrimmage, there can't be OPI. So a WR blocking ahead of that screen is legal.

No. It is still a kick - by definition - and K cannot advance it.

This varies by conference. As an example, the Big Ten pays around $2600 per game. The official, as I understand it, is responsible for all his expenses out of that, including travel, hotel (they have to be there the night before), and meals. At the Division 2 level, one eastern conference that shall remain nameless, pays $235, again a flat fee regardless of travel. One Division 3 eastern conference I know of pays $190, while another in the same general geographic area pays $175.

Because the rules say he can. And he's the only one. A holder can go up off his knee to get a high snap and bring it down for the hold. Likewise, the fact that he's on the ground when he gets the snap would normally make the ball dead. The holder has special rules (college).

I can't answer that - I did not see it. Sorry

Unless I'm really screwing this up - always a possibility - it's a touchback. The status of the ball is that it is still a kick, even though it touched a receiver. In high school and college, a grounded kick in he endzone is a touchback. If it was receovered by the kickers in the field of play (between the goal lines), then it would be K's ball.
