help please.... |
Hello,
I came to states only very recently,Jan this year, and am enrolled in my college, in my first semester.Now it is impossible for me to continue studying without finding some sort of work, and after Sept 11, I am finding that finding off the books work is extreamly hard.I am thinking of going to my ISO, and ask for off the campus employment approval....Do you think it is a viable idea?Also, how safe is it to work outside the field of your major study in college if the ISO gives this authorization.What documents should I present to the ISO in my situation?...Any input will be greatly appreciated. |

I don't know if all the colleges are same... but as long as I know, if you've been attending the college more than 9 months, you can apply for a work permit through ISO. And if you got the permit, you can work off campus for 20 hours a week at most. Good luck! |

The type of work permit you can apply right now, in your current situation, is economic hardship work permit. This permit allows you to work off-campus regardless of your major of study. Consult to your ISO about this kind of permit.
Good Luck! |
