View Full Version : Can F2 look for a job?
Hi, I am in the US on F2 visa. I am intending to work as a web developer. Can I go out and look for a job/internship? Do I need a social security card? I heard that it's possible to change from F2 to H1B? How difficult is it? Please advice! Thank you so much.

If you want to work in the US on F2 Visa, You have to apply for Employment Authorization Document (EAD) first. You can able to work once you got the EAD approval.
You no need to apply for the Social Security Card.

Yes, Person on F2 visa can apply for EAD. There is no Law against it. But you have to prove the consular officer that your earning will not use for support F1 visa holders studies.
