My husband works 20 hours per week at an on-campus job, in compliance with his F1 visa. We are adjusting his status (I-130 I-485). Do we need to file an I-765 so he can keep working 20 hours/week, or is that for full-time status?

And, is it true that when filed wit the I-485, the I-765 is free (part of the $1070 fee)?

Thanks for any insight!

He does not need to file I-765 for his on-campus job, the policy says that foreign students under F1 can work no more than 20 hours a week on campus. However, if he wants to do off campus job, he needs to apply CPT at the international student office.

But I would say file those two anyway cause you never know what is going to happen, maybe he can find a nice off campus job or you two have to travel oversea during the whole time of waiting. These two forms are free so just go ahead and file them

I-864

G-325a One for each of you.

Then you will be covered for what ever work he wants to do, for how ever many hours.

I don't know any of those forms except for 1-130, 1-485 and i-765.. however I'm pretty sure as long as you have i-765 you are allowed to do any type of jobs already.
