If you have a case currently pending with CIS or the Courts, you may be eligible for an Employment Authorization Document, more commonly called a work permit. It is important to know that work permits are not the same as visas, and they do not grant you any legal right to U.S. residency. Before you apply for a work permit, either on your own or through the services of a notary, we highly recommend that you seek legal counsel with an attorney to see whether and how your application may affect your immigration status.
