i've heard that f1 students who are in states for more then a year can file a work permit under economic hardship....is that real??? if so.. can anybody help me about all this stuff???...coz ma padne university saro mangggoo cha ani i can't transfer to other places toooo....so i'm planing to file for work permit.....it would be really appreciable if you guys could help me

man I just got denied. Its better to wait a year and apply for a card and mention that you absolutely don't have any money.

I got denied too but it's more off an ill luck that would result in denial. Go to USCIS.gov and do some research viceroy. A lot of College students in states such as Iowa, North Dakota and California where there aren't a lot of desi stores apply for work permits.

it should be like two semester in a college .. . so that way  .. u can  apply for work permit trough the  reason of economic hardship . ..  i had applied twice and got twice ..and soon  to be apply one ... cause two had already expired . ..   go to the international student advisor ... and ask him that u wanna  apply for  work permit .. . mentioning ur parents are  having hard time to support you.. . he will give u a form ..and u need to  write a letter one by yourself ..and  another  by ur  sponser ..  and  it would be better if u submit  the proof  of nepal economic crisis and the problem nepal facing  these days  .... Print some news like terai closed for 14th days, petroleum products shortage in nepal .. ..   inorder to have a proof in which ur parents are unabale to support u.

really appreciate dude...i talked with my advisor and she also suggested me to do the same stuff that bash had said here....sooner i'm gonna apply for work permit..thanks once again

Viceroy, Remember one thing, if you transfer to another school your work permit Expires as well. Keep that in mind..... I applied twice and i got twice with no problem...It just took 15 days for me. Just write a personal essay mentioning ur parents are having hard time sponsoring you because of maoists problem and other political problems in Nepal and you'll definitely get one.. Good Luck.

Also, you need not be attending a 4 year college to apply for economic hardship. You could be attending a community college and you'd still be able to get a working permit! Better be safe than sorry fellows. Work permits will guarantee a lucrative job in places such as Ocean City, and by those, I'm not talking about the ghisa pita jobs of Crab Boys and McDonald's burger flpper, something that I did in my first summer. Good luck.

Arrogant or anybody else....does anybody have sample of essay that they wrote to DHS...i am thinking to apply too so help me out.

Thanks in Advance
