The I-765 Application for Employment Authorization is a form issued by the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) that must be completed and submitted in order to receive an employment authorization document, otherwise known as a work permit.

 

The document serves as proof of an individual’s eligibility to work in the U.S. legally and provides critical information such as the applicant’s identity, immigration status, address, date of birth, contact information, educational background, and history of legal residence. It also requires applicants to submit evidence that they are eligible for employment authorization according to immigration laws.
