Hello,

I'm hoping to receive some insight. We received our notification for our interview for Feb 2nd (finally) however my husband hasn't received his work permit. He was fingerprinted on December 4th. He has been interviewing and was offered a great job with a good company. He explained he's waiting for the work permit and they absolutely  understood and said they will wait for him to receive the card. They said they wanted to at least get the process started and would like to do a background check on him while he waits for his work permit. The job said they just want to run his background and they will give him a tentative date once he gets his work permits. They're aware of the time delay as well.

 

Is this something he can get started? Will a background check be any problem? He won't be working at all but they do want to get this part out of the way. Is this something he can provide? They're asking for his SNN and License Number to run it for now.

 

Thoughts?

Thank you!

You can do all pre-employment activities up to just short of actually working

No issues.  He just can't legally start the job until his EAD or Green card is approved.

Perfect! Thank you for your response. I reached out to a previous HR Director and she stated the same exact thing. She said there aren't any issues with the pre - employment process but he just can't physically work.

 

After being fingerprinted, we received the notice for the interview for February 2nd however no EAD. Seems like his green card is moving quicker than his EAD. crazy. lol.
