Immigration Q&A

Your Question

Is a work permit only for asylum seekers, or does it apply to other visa categories?

Expert Answer

A work permit, officially known as an Employment Authorization Document (EAD), is not only for asylum seekers. It is available for various visa categories, including but not limited to asylum applicants (C08), spouses of certain visa holders (such as L2, J2, and E2 dependents), TPS (Temporary Protected Status) holders, DACA recipients, certain green card applicants, and those with pending adjustment of status. The eligibility for an EAD depends on the applicant's immigration status and category.
