Welcome to another video which is about asylum application process and working permit in USA.
APPLICATION PROCESS
If you applied for asylum in the US before, you will know how impatient applicants are and how eager they are to know everything about the whole process. The process can be lengthy based on the case and also the State you apply in. Generally speaking when you apply for asylum in the US it will take six months or so to be completed.
WORKING PERMIT
We know that before you can work in the US you need a working permit and you have to be first legal in the country in order to obtain it.
So as your asylum application is in process, the US government allows you to apply for a working permit by filling out form I-765 after 150 days of your submission. This a great way to start working and take care of yourself while waiting for the immigration’s decision on your case.
I hope you guys learn something from this video, thanks for watching and see you in the next video.
