Never done it.......I had my Work Auth before I managed to secure some 'tax free' income.
I said to the boss, 'where were you when I got off the plane?'
And she said "waiting in the terminal", right?
You did too? :grin:
My green card was 'pending' but my employer wanted me to start. I don't know if they would do that in the post Sept. 11 world?

Thing is, I don't like the way they said they could 'indefinitely detain illegals who overstay their visas/violate their visa terms' without charge. Seems they would have as many rights as those in Guantanamo Bay.
I had to spend six months working construction just to make sure that Mrs Rude and me had some money - we were so poor, we couldn't afford the o and the r, we were po'. Luckily a friend hired me and paid cash money, which came in really handy I can tell you. Waiting on all the legal stuff took way too long, I hated not having a job.

I hear you loud and clear matey. me and her were riding the same bus you were.
Took me 3 months however to get my Work Auth.
It was bizaare because I got a full time job at the newspaper and she got the full time job at the insurance office within a week of each other, we went from food stamps to having a mutual fund within a week. It luckily all worked out for us eventually. We laughed through the times we ate nowt but mac and cheese for weeks on end. So now being the affluent young man about town that I am, I have no time for the riff raff from whence I came.
Incidently, I have a friend in Kaleva who is from Nottingham. He arrived here nearly 8 months before I did and went through exactly the same filing proceedure I did (I-485 et al) and while he had his interview WELL over 18 months ago, he still hasn't had the call to go back and get his passport stamped and become a conditional permanent resident.
I effectively am now 1 full year ahead of him, even though he started 8 months before me.
Is this common?

Is that the hovis tune I hear in the background? (You know, the one with the kid pushing his bike up a bloody great hill)

laff all you want, but life was rough.
I used to get up and ask the 11 year old if he wanted to skip school and go and work the fields picking cherries.
But he just didn't think it was right, with his 12 paper rounds.
And the 15 hours a day job at the factory...

I know - our living room furniture set consisted of two lawn chairs and a patio table.
