USAGov has updated its page on working in the United States with a work permit, also known as an EAD. For Turkish readers arriving on temporary visas or transitioning into a new immigration status, this is a useful reminder that work authorization rules can be easy to miss.
The page explains that many nonimmigrant visa holders need an EAD before being hired and that applicants usually file Form I-765 to request one. It also flags a major change: the automatic extension of the EAD ended on October 30, 2025, so workers should check whether that update affects their own case.
For people building a life in the U.S., job access is often tied directly to immigration paperwork. Knowing when a permit is required, how long it lasts, and how to renew it can help avoid interruptions at work.
As always, the safest approach is to use official government guidance and verify your own category before starting employment. For many newcomers, that extra step can prevent costly mistakes later.
