Employer and NOA1

[slurm 0]

Hi,

I received my NOA1 last week from my I-751 application and wondered if I need to give a copy to my employer?

I know it says my residency is extended for a year while my case is processed, but as there is no fixed date on the letter will my employer understand this?

Anyone have any experiences of giving this to an employer?

Thanks!

Did your employer ask for it?

No they haven't asked for it. I just wondered if there was a legal obligation for me to supply a copy of the NOA1 (Extension letter).

I would expect there is a need for me to give them a copy, but with the lack of a future "expiry" date I wasn't sure if it would just confuse them.

The extension letter extends your status for one year from the date on your green card. The two documents work together, so if your green card expires April 30, 2009, the NOA letter extends your status for one year - to April 30, 2010.

If you did not use the GC as proof of being work authorized but DL and SSN don't bring in the NOA1 - you will just confuse them.

If they didn't ask for it don't show it to them.

My company they ask me for new Green Card due to my old one will expire next week , When i bring them my extension letter , they don't know it . And they don't want to accept it as proof of my eligibility to work . And then they make me fill one form and sign it . And then they will check about it ......

So my advice don't say nothing or bring them anything until if they ask for it

Good Luck.
