Hi VJers,

My husband is the alien ( strange to call husband as Alien) but as i was saying he wd be searching for jobs as soon as he gets his EAD. We are at Ohio and i was wondering whether state govt jobs are available to EAD card holders. I was looking at the site Ohio state Govt jobs. There are many open jobs but no where its mentioned who can apply whther need to be a citizen or EAD card holders can also apply.

Can someone help us on this ............. I am pretty sure many knows this fact. Thanks

It seems that the State of Ohio uses Governmentjobs to allow people to apply for work. Basically when completing your profile, it will ask whether you're legally authorized to work in the US. If you're legally authorized to work that will be on your application and you'll be able to apply for positions. I do think you have to be a citizen for work with the state government.

Citizenship is a requirement for Federal jobs only. Not for state jobs. Sorry, I didn't reread my first reply. It should have said that you do not have to be a citizen for state jobs.

I had an EAD when I first started to work for a WA state job.

AOS Approved on 10-17-08 (details in profile)

Removal of Conditions on 07-19-10

In this tedious process, we tend to forget that this is all worth it.

I love my hubby beyond anything in this world.
