I've tried searching for this question -- but have not found any topics able to answer my question.

My AOS was approved for Green Card on July 29. but we never recieved the card. I have filed for a I-90 for a replacement.

I did not file for a work permit-thinking that the Greencard would come soon.

My question:

Can I apply for a job, when I am waiting for my Green Card to come in the mail? I should get it within 30-60days?

How can I show proof of work eligible?

I don't know the answer to that one but I just wanted to say congratulations!!! :thumbs::dance::thumbs::dance: God bless you!!!

Passage Revelation 19:11:

11And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and he that sat upon him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he doth judge and make war.

"satan is real and he's playing for keeps
God is realer and we are His sheep
which side are you on, CHOOSE, start moving your feet
choose JESUS and have ETERNAL PEACE" by GOD to me on 9/26/10 about 2am
Thank you Jesus!!!!

sure - if you 'match' the requirements on the I-9 document. For you, should be

green card + ssn

No Green Card? make infopass appointment, bring in the approval notice, get I-551 stamp in passport - this is 'same as greencard'.

Once you have the stamp, if you not have SSN, get to SSA office, apply for SSN.

Good Luck !

Ya know, you can find the answer to your question with the advanced search tool, when using a PC? Ditch the handphone, come back later on a PC, and try again.

If I understand correctly: you suggest:

1. make infopass appointment and bring the approval notice to get I-551 stamp in passport

2. Use the I-551 stamp as proof of legal status and work eligible

Is that correct?

I already have my SSN :)

That will work just fine. Another option is that if you have already filed the I-90 to replace the card, and have received the NOA 1 for the I-90, you can also show your employer the I-90 NOA1. You will then have 90 days to show them the actual GC.

DON'T PANIC
