When a foreign national (non-U.S. citizen) applies an employment authorization document (EAD)using Form I-765, and USCIS determines eligibility based on these regulations. The Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) 8 CFR Part 274a controls the Employment Authorization Documents (EADs) of aliens including the other specific categories of foreign nationals eligible for work authorization, such as asylum seekers or pending green card applicants. Especially, the tile 8 CFR Part 274a consists three specific parts the following.
Title 8 CFR § 274a.12 —-> Lists the specific classes of aliens eligible for employment authorization
Title 8 CFR § 274a.13 —-> Outlines the application process for an EAD
Title 8 CFR § 274a.2 —-> Covers the requirements for verifying identity and employment authorization.
