Chicago Immigration Attorneys - Employment Authorization

Our Chicago immigration lawyers can help you obtain employment authorization document.  Human Resource departments can become overwhelmed by the different kinds of documents that foreign nationals may show as evidence that they are authorized to work in the U.S. Many employers are not aware of all the restrictions that accompany various USCIS-issued work permits. Generally, USCIS regulations establish three classes of noncitizens who are allowed to work in the US:

  • Noncitizens authorized to work incident to their immigration status;
  • Noncitizens who are permitted to work for a specific employer incident to their status (H-1B, L-1, O-1, TN, etc.); and
  • Noncitizens who must apply for and obtain permission from the USCIS in order to accept employment to the US.

We can help your HR department to reduce its immigration-related risks by providing I-9 support and prepare all immigration compliance files to ensure that that your records are accurate and up-to-date. Our Firm will help you and your business navigate effectively through the maze of complex immigration and nationality laws to help you ensure that all your employees are authorized to work legally in the United States for your business.

I have dealt with Sofia Zneimer since 2009. She is a great lawyer and has helped me tremendously in navigating the process of green card. She is a great resource to have by your side. She is easy to reach. She responds very quickly, which was very important for me. If she can’t answer the question the same day, she does let you know that she is working on it. I would have no hesitation in recruiting her. Hemant S.
