Legal Question in Immigration Law in California

I-765 Application

Dear Sir/Ma'm:

I am currently an H1B working VISA holder and is married

to a greencard holder. Can I apply for a work permit

or can my spouse petition me so that I can obtain a work

permit/residency so that I may not anymore renew my H1B under my current employer?

Is I-765, Application for Employment Authorization the

form for work permit application?

Please advise.

Thank you

No! Unless she petitioned for you years ago. You cannot get a work permit at this time.

Re: I-765 Application

No, you probably cannot if your wife received the green card prior to your marriage.
