TJ Says:\n\nUsually you go to the main office of your school. That's where I went to pick up mine. Then you go to your job your son is working at, get them to fill out the necessary parts, then you return it back to the school and they fill out the necessary information. Then, you turn it in at the job. At least that is how my permit worked.

if he is at the age of stuyding he can apply to a school and get a student visa. then when he comes he starts to work at the same time. of if you are from usa he can apply for a green card. oooooooor you can marry him. so he will become the citizen of your country.

If you are a student, go to your high school guidance counselor.  Laws may vary by state but, most (I believe) will provide work permits allowing you to work up to 20 to25 hours a week between the ages of 14 and 16.

Yes, you need both a visa and a work permit, and it is not easy to get them, it usually takes time, a lot of time!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You need status to obtain a working permit.  Call INS, they would give you better details.

It depends on her job skills and whether she can get a sponsor, etc.  She should look at the immigration web page, they spell out the options.  She could ask a prospective employer's human resources department for help, as well, if they are willing to sponsor her.\n\nGood luck!

There are a lot of ways.  You could go get a traditional job depending on the age (I think its 15 or 16 depending on the state).   You could start a business.  I know that sounds silly, but a lot of teens do that, sometimes without even realizing it.   Mowing lawns, doing odd jobs are popular ways.   So is painting and other physical manual labor jobs.   If a teenager is good on a computer, there may be online and website opportunties as well.  \n\nOne idea might be to help neighbors clean out their attics and garages and offer to take their junk away.  Then clean it up and sell it on Ebay or have a garage sale with all the stuff.   There are lots of things really that can be done.  Just be creative.

Of course you can get a job at 15 I live in Louisville, Ky, I have a job and i just turned 15 in September I just quite though.  Wendy's accept 15 year olds and subway also. There are also other jobs besides fast food where you can work.  I the job requires you to be 16 you can get a workers permit from you school counselor. go to www.jobsforyoungteens.com

look in your yellow pages under gov. look for dept. of disabilities.  if your son was diagnosed before the age of 21 the state well pick up the whole bill. as well as fund anything else he needs.\nif you son has social sercurity then you know about red tape and hanging in there sometimes it is very easy and sometimes you have to patient.

Not in most states, but minor laws do vary state to state.  You need one at 15 in most states, but at 16 you just need proof that you are eligible to work in the US.  This proof could be a social security card, driver's license, state issued ID, tribal card, birth certificate, or a passport.

What a refreshing change! A teenager asking to work! Laws are pretty specific as to what your age range can be employed doing. Check with your local unemployment office for any openings that would allow your age. As a teenager I did the mundane (but profitable!)jobs a "country" kid could do..picked vegetables, washed cars, mowed grass, babysat my parents friends kids (be sure you can handle that kind of responsibility first and take a course in CPR and first aid usually available through the American Red Cross or American Heart Association and some 4H clubs--THIS IS A MUST), I have 5 kids, and of those, 3 teenagers. My 15 year old son talked with some of his favorite teachers and one recommended him for a job at a gym that offers a kids program. He basically helps the kids in the "kids area" and does a lot of cleaning up after birthday parties. Try talking with adults you know and TRUST. Good Luck!

Easiest way is- Go to some US Immigration Consultant. They will easily tell you the rules and regulations for the same. or visit US site youreself to assess your eligibility for US work permit. Its very easy to find out the ways if you are capable enough..

Whether it is or not, you obviously need to get an education before you strike out on your own. You can't spell legal and should have said you're.  How do you expect to support yourself at 15 anyway?  If it's dangerous at home for you then seek help, but don't just leave.

You will be able to get a permit as long as your boyfriend is ready to file for you. Not that hard as long as you meet the requirements and show that you're actualy married.\n\nyou could im or mail me @ delomos@gmail.com for more info

It's pretty much illegal to give someone under 16 a job, or a "real" job because of child labor laws. So some places give jobs to 15 year olds, but the laws are so strict even they can't work more than about 15-20 hours a week, so most places won't even bother with you until you're 16. \nTry getting a job helping out a parent, babysitting, or start selling things on ebay.\n\nps. I'm from Texas too :D, cept the DFW area, originally Houston.

First make sure it's legal.\nThe labour laws vary from place to place. It's common for the minimum age of employment to be 14, and in other areas as old as 16.\n\nThis is why youth often work cutting grass, shovelling snow, delivering newspapers and babysitting... those jobs are cash jobs and no income tax is collected.\n\nOnce you verify that you are employable, decide what skills you have to offer and approach target employers directly. Chances are you are not highly trained or employable at such a young age (nor should you be!...other things are more important at this point in your life), so you may be looking at jobs such as motel housekeeping, fast food service, reception work, cashier, stock clerk, etc.\n\nOnly YOU know what skills you have to offer.\n\nGood luck.
