What is Authorized Employment? In order for employment to be authorized it must be (a) permitted under U.S. federal law, and (b) in accordance with the terms, duration and scope of the foreign national's immigrant or nonimmigrant status and employment authorization, if any. What is Unauthorized Employment?  Unauthorized employment is services or labor provided in the United States by a nonimmigrant foreign national: (1) whose nonimmigrant status bars all employment; or (2) whose nonimmigrant status only permits employment in a different position, or for a different employer. (3) who entered without a visa and has not received an Employment Authorization Document form the INS. (4)  whose nonimmigrant status requires the foreign national to obtain a specific Employment Authorization Document from the INS, where the foreign national has not yet applied for, or been issued, this document.
