Unauthorized employment period exceeding 180 days
I’m currently going through my green card process.
The application has a section for ‘a period of working without a work permit.’
I’d like to know if listing an unauthorized employment period exceeding 180 days on the G-325 experience section could result in denial of employment-based immigration. In my case, it did not exceed 180 days.
If the unauthorized employment period exceeds 180 days, employment-based immigration can be denied. If it’s under 180 days, it can be excused, but we think the unauthorized employment period should still be carefully reviewed separately. If a problem does arise, you may be able to file a motion to reopen to explain your case to USCIS.
