I-766 Eligibility

[immihelp]

Dear Sir/Madam,

I have a non-immigrant E-2 Investor’s visa. I am currently trying to get a Virginia driver’s license and I have trouble obtaining it because I cannot present a secondary document. I noticed one document that could be presented is Employment Authorization Document I-766. Am I eligible to have this document issued? I looked at the categories and there is one for spouses of E-2 holders but I cannot see one specifically for E-2 holders.

I look forward to your response.

Yours faithfully

You should already be authorized to work on E2 visa. You don't need EAD and you can't get one.

I am an E2 visa holder. To get your driver's license, you will need your passport, visa, I-94, 2 recent utility bills and your latest pay slip (original, not photocopied). If anything else is required, they will let you know. You do not need and EAD, that is only for the spouse of the visa holder.
