How can I apply for a work authorization?
If you are an immigrant living in California and would like to apply for a work authorization, here are the steps to follow: First, you need to fill out an I-765 form, also known as the Application for Employment Authorization. You can find this form on the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services website. You will need to provide your personal information as well as answer some questions about your immigration status. Second, you must gather the documents required to support your application. This includes proof of identity, proof of your immigration status, and documentation that shows your need for the work authorization. This can include the letter from your current or prospective employer, or paperwork related to the type of work you are seeking. Third, you need to submit your completed application and all the required documents to the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services office closest to you. Finally, you need to pay the application filing fee. You can do this with a check or money order made out to the U.S. Department of Homeland Security. Once you have followed all the steps above, you will then be able to apply for a work authorization in California. You should receive a response from U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services within 90 days of submitting your application.
