Getting Work Authorization in the US
There may be several options available for individuals looking to come to the U.S. to work:
- Sponsorship by an employer (through EB-1, EB-2, EB-3, EB-4, and EB-5 visas)
- Sponsorship by a family member (such as a spouse, child, or fiancé/fiancée visa)
- Asylum or refugee status
- Green card lottery
When an individual obtains a green card (or permanent residence status), he or she can generally work anywhere in the U.S. with no restrictions. Our law firm assists immigrants who are seeking to become either a temporary (nonimmigrant) worker or a permanent (immigrant) worker.
An individual cannot apply for a work permit unless he or she has filed with United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) or immigration court. To learn more about the requirements for gaining authorization to work in the United States, please contact our law firm.
