Employment Authorization Document

A Kind I-766 work permission file (EAD; [1] or EAD card, understood popularly as a work license, is a document provided by the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) that provides momentary work authorization to noncitizens in the United States.

Currently the Form I-766 Employment Authorization Document is released in the type of a basic credit card-size plastic card enhanced with multiple security functions. The card consists of some basic info about the immigrant: name, birth date, sex, immigrant category, nation of birth, image, immigrant registration number (also called “A-number”), card number, limiting terms, and dates of credibility. This file, however, must not be puzzled with the green card.

To request a Work Authorization Document, noncitizens who qualify may submit Form I-765, Application for Employment Authorization. Applicants need to then send out the form via mail to the USCIS Regional Service Center that serves their location. If authorized, an Employment Authorization Document will be released for a specific duration of time based on alien’s migration scenario.

Thereafter, USCIS will release Employment Authorization Documents in the following classifications:

Replacement Employment Authorization Document: Replaces a lost, stolen, or mutilated EAD. A replacement Employment Authorization Document likewise changes a Work Authorization Document that was issued with incorrect information, such as a misspelled name. [1]
For employment-based green card candidates, the priority date needs to be existing to look for Adjustment of Status (I-485) at which time an Employment Authorization Document can be applied for. Typically, it is suggested to request Advance Parole at the very same time so that visa stamping is not required when re-entering US from a foreign country.

[1] The interim Employment Authorization Document will be granted for a duration not to exceed 240 days and goes through the conditions kept in mind on the file.

Background: immigration control and work regulations

Undocumented immigrants have been considered a source of low-wage labor, employment both in the official and casual sectors of the economy. However, in the late 1980s with an increasing influx of un-regulated immigration, lots of anxious about how this would affect the economy and, at the very same time, people. Consequently, in 1986, Congress enacted the Immigration Reform and Control Act “in order to manage and hinder unlawful immigration to the United States” resulting increasing patrolling of U.S. borders. [7] Additionally, the Immigration Reform and Control Act executed brand-new work regulations that imposed employer sanctions, criminal and civil charges “against companies who intentionally [employed] illegal workers”. [8] Prior to this reform, companies were not required to validate the identity and work permission of their employees; for the very very first time, this reform “made it a crime for undocumented immigrants to work” in the United States. [9]

The Employment Eligibility Verification file (I-9) was required to be used by employers to “verify the identity and work permission of people employed for work in the United States”. [10] While this type is not to be sent unless requested by government officials, it is required that all employers have an I-9 type from each of their staff members, which they must be retain for 3 years after day of hire or one year after employment is terminated. [11]

I-9 certifying citizenship or migration statuses

– A person of the United States.
– A noncitizen nationwide of the United States.
– A lawful permanent resident.
– An alien authorized to work – As an “Alien Authorized to Work,” the staff member should offer an “A-Number” present in the EAD card, together with the expiration day of the short-term work authorization. Thus, as established by type I-9, the EAD card is a document which serves as both a recognition and confirmation of employment eligibility. [10]

Concurrently, the Immigration Act of 1990 “increased the limits on legal immigration to the United States,” […] “established new nonimmigrant admission categories,” and modified appropriate premises for deportation. Most significantly, it brought to light the “authorized momentary safeguarded status” for aliens of designated countries. [7]

Through the modification and production of brand-new classes of nonimmigrants, gotten approved for admission and momentary working status, both IRCA and the Immigration Act of 1990 offered legislation for the regulation of employment of noncitizen.

The 9/11 attacks brought to the surface area the weak element of the migration system. After the September 11 attacks, the United States magnified its concentrate on interior support of migration laws to reduce prohibited migration and to identify and get rid of criminal aliens. [12]

Temporary employee: Alien Authorized to Work

Undocumented Immigrants are individuals in the United States without legal status. When these individuals certify for some type of remedy for deportation, individuals might get approved for some kind of legal status. In this case, temporarily safeguarded noncitizens are those who are given “the right to stay in the nation and work throughout a designated duration”. Thus, this is kind of an “in-between status” that supplies people short-lived work and short-lived relief from deportation, but it does not result in long-term residency or citizenship status. [1] Therefore, employment an Employment Authorization Document need to not be confused with a legalization document and it is neither U.S. long-term homeowner status nor U.S. citizenship status. The Employment Authorization Document is provided, as pointed out previously, to eligible noncitizens as part of a reform or law that provides individuals temporary legal status

Examples of “Temporarily Protected” noncitizens (eligible for an Employment Authorization Document)

Temporary Protected Status (TPS) – Under Temporary Protected Status, individuals are provided relief from deportation as momentary refugees in the United States. Under Temporary Protected Status, individuals are offered safeguarded status if discovered that “conditions in that country present a danger to individual safety due to ongoing armed conflict or an ecological disaster”. This status is approved generally for 6 to 18 month durations, eligible for renewal unless the individual’s Temporary Protected Status is terminated by U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services. If withdrawal of Temporary Protected Status takes place, the private faces exclusion or deportation proceedings. [13]
– Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals was licensed by President Obama in 2012; it supplied certified undocumented youth “access to relief from deportation, sustainable work permits, and short-lived Social Security numbers”. [14]
Deferred Action for Parents of Americans (DAPA): If enacted, Deferred Action for Parents of Americans would provide parents of Americans and Lawful Permanent Residents, defense from deportation and make them qualified for an Employment Authorization Document. [15]
