Employment Authorization (Form I-765) Preparation

What is Form I-765?

Form I-765, Application for Employment Authorization, is how some people ask USCIS for permission to work in the United States. If approved, USCIS issues an Employment Authorization Document (EAD), often called a work permit. The form is used for first-time applications, renewals and replacements.

Eligibility for a work permit depends on the category you fall under — for example, a pending green card application or a particular immigration status. USCIS's instructions list the categories, and OG does not choose one for you; if you are unsure, tell us and we will note it rather than guess.

OG helps you organize your information and documents — identity and immigration records, evidence that supports your category and photos as the instructions require — and prepares Form I-765 from what you provide. If you are renewing an existing card, see our work permit renewal page. You review the finished form, sign it and file it yourself; we do not give legal advice.

Frequently asked questions

Are you immigration attorneys?
No. OG Multiservices is not a law firm. We provide document preparation and administrative assistance — we do not give legal advice or represent you before USCIS or the Department of State. For legal questions about your case, consult a licensed immigration attorney.
What should I prepare for an I-765?
Identity documents and your passport, your immigration records (such as your I-94 and any receipt or approval notices), evidence that supports your category, and passport-style photos as the instructions require. We will go through your documents with you.
Is a work permit the same as a green card?
No. A work permit (EAD) is permission to work for a limited period; a green card is permanent resident status. Some people apply for a work permit while a green card application is pending.
My work permit is about to expire. Which page is for me?
Renewals have their own page: see work permit renewal. This page covers first-time applications and replacements.
Do you file my I-765 with USCIS?
No. We prepare the form from what you provide; you review it, sign it and file it as the instructions describe.
