Work Permits

Employment authorization application support

Work permit document preparation focuses on Form I-765 employment authorization applications and renewals. We help clients identify the category listed on their notices and organize supporting identity and status documents — without advising on legal eligibility.

Pricing

I-765 service fee published at $300. Government filing fees are separate from Asal's service fee.

Who this service is for

  • Adjustment applicants requesting a work permit
  • Asylum, TPS, parole, or other category-based EAD applicants
  • Clients renewing an expiring EAD card
