Work Permit

[Karam and Jamie 44]

My husband's work permit expires January 19th of 2016. I have on my calendar to renew it on September 1st. Is this right? Is there an area on here that I can look this up? How much does it cost?

His Green Card says Permanent Resident so does that mean we don't have to renew his Work Permit?

If he has his I-551 2-year Conditional Green Card, he is a Permanent Resident, and as such, he no longer has any need for EAD or AP cards.

Good luck on you immigration journey.

Hi,

His green card is also his work authorization. He no longer needs his work permit (EAD). No need to renew the work permit.
