For your information, all U.S. employers must make sure all employees are allowed to work in this country.<\/p>\n<p>This employment authorization is necessary regardless of <strong>citizenship or national origin.<\/strong> So, it is important to know what you have to do. Being prepared can help you get a<strong> Green Card<\/strong> and an Employment Authorization Document without unnecessary delays.<\/p>\n<h2>Green Card Processes and Procedures<\/h2>\n<p>According to <strong>USCIS<\/strong>, having an Employment Authorization Document (Form I-766\/EAD) is one of the most common ways to prove that you are <strong>allowed to work<\/strong> in the <strong>USA<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, this Employment Authorization Document is for a <strong>specific period of time<\/strong>. To get EAD, you must file Form I-765, Application for Employment Authorization.<\/p>\n<p>Perhaps you are not sure whether you must apply for <strong>EAD<\/strong> or not. In this case, have a look at the cases in which it is necessary to file the previously mentioned Form I-765.<\/p>\n<h2>Who needs to apply for EAD?<\/h2>\n<p>Generally, you will need to apply for <strong>EAD<\/strong> if you are authorized to work in the <strong>USA<\/strong> due to your immigration status or because of your personal circumstances and need proof of that employment authorization. For instance, if you are a refugee, an asylee, or U nonimmigrant.<\/p>\n<p>On other occasions, you may be required to apply for permission to work because you have a pending:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Form I-485<\/li>\n<li>Form I-589<\/li>\n<li>or you have a nonimmigrant status or circumstances that allow you to be in the USA but not to work here (e.g. F-1 or M-1 student)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>However, you will not need to apply for EAD if you have a<strong> Green Card<\/strong>. That<strong> Green Card<\/strong> makes you a<strong> lawful permanent resident<\/strong> in the United States. An alternative way to work in the United States is having &#8220;a nonimmigrant status that authorizes you to work for a specific employer incident to your status (for example, you are an H-1B, L-1B, O, or P nonimmigrant).&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you are planning to get a Green Card, you will also be interested in the Employment Authorization Document\u00a0to work in the United States in 2025.
