Employment Records

Employment records, such as pay stubs, employment contracts, and letters from employers, document an individual’s work history and income. In immigration court proceedings, these records can be used to establish a foreign national’s ties to the community, financial stability, and compliance with the terms of their employment authorization, if applicable. Employment records may also be relevant in determining an individual’s eligibility for certain forms of relief, such as cancellation of removal, which may require a showing of continuous physical presence and good moral character. Additionally, for foreign nationals seeking adjustment of status based on employment, these records can demonstrate their qualifications and the legitimacy of their job offer.
