Work permit

Not all people can work legally in the United States, as a general rule we can say that citizens and permanent residents can do so.

But there are also other cases that, depending on specific requirements or circumstances, can work:

Those who have to request authorization to work.

Those who obtain authorization to work for a specific employer.

Those who have an immigration status that allows them to work.

The conditions that USCIS establishes mean that each particular case must be studied to determine whether or not the petitioner can request a work permit, since it is possible that immigration categories that do not have status can also request this permit.

Statement: The concepts explained should not be taken as legal advice, it is a compendium of public information from the INA.

In all cases, consultation with an attorney is recommended to determine your eligibility. At Immigration Document Preparers, we limit ourselves to submitting forms to USCIS correctly based on the information that the client provides us. We do not give advice or legal advice.
