If you want to work in the USA, it is generally necessary to obtain an appropriate work visa, such as an H-1B visa for skilled professionals or other employment-based work visas.

The preparation of a marriage petition with the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) can be a complex and detailed process. Although it is not mandatory to have an attorney, many people choose to hire an immigration lawyer to assist with the preparation of the petition, ensure that the documentation is correct, and help avoid potential issues or delays. An attorney can provide specific legal advice for your case and help increase your chances of success.

Eligibility to apply for a work permit (known as an "Employment Authorization Document" or EAD) and Social Security can vary based on your immigration status and the type of visa you hold. In many cases, you can apply for a work permit simultaneously with your immigration petition or after the approval of a certain status. Social Security typically requires an identification number, such as a Social Security number or an Individual Taxpayer Identification Number (ITIN).
