Background: immigration control and work regulations
Undocumented immigrants have been thought about a source of low-wage labor, both in the official and informal sectors of the economy. However, in the late 1980s with an increasing influx of un-regulated immigration, many anxious about how this would impact the economy and, at the same time, residents. Consequently, in 1986, Congress enacted the Immigration Reform and Control Act “in order to control and deter unlawful migration to the United States” resulting increasing patrolling of U.S. borders. [7] Additionally, the Immigration Reform and Control Act carried out new work guidelines that imposed employer sanctions, criminal and “against employers who intentionally [employed] unlawful employees”. [8] Prior to this reform, companies were not needed to confirm the identity and employment permission of their staff members; for the very first time, this reform “made it a criminal activity for undocumented immigrants to work” in the United States. [9]
The Employment Eligibility Verification document (I-9) was required to be used by companies to “confirm the identity and employment authorization of individuals employed for employment in the United States”. [10] While this kind is not to be submitted unless requested by government authorities, it is required that all companies have an I-9 form from each of their employees, which they must be retain for three years after day of hire or one year after employment is ended. [11]
I-9 certifying citizenship or migration statuses
– A person of the United States.
– A noncitizen national of the United States.
– A legal long-term local.
– An alien authorized to work – As an “Alien Authorized to Work,” the worker needs to supply an “A-Number” present in the EAD card, in addition to the expiration day of the temporary work permission. Thus, as established by form I-9, the EAD card is a file which acts as both a recognition and confirmation of employment eligibility. [10]
Concurrently, the Immigration Act of 1990 “increased the limits on lawful migration to the United States,” […] “established brand-new nonimmigrant admission classifications,” and revised appropriate grounds for deportation. Most significantly, it brought to light the “authorized momentary secured status” for aliens of designated countries. [7]
Through the revision and development of new classes of nonimmigrants, certified for admission and momentary working status, both IRCA and the Immigration Act of 1990 provided legislation for the regulation of work of noncitizen.
The 9/11 attacks gave the surface the weak aspect of the migration system. After the September 11 attacks, the United States intensified its focus on interior reinforcement of immigration laws to reduce unlawful migration and to determine and remove criminal aliens. [12]
Temporary employee: Alien Authorized to Work
Undocumented Immigrants are individuals in the United States without lawful status. When these people receive some kind of relief from deportation, people might get approved for some type of legal status. In this case, temporarily secured noncitizens are those who are given “the right to remain in the nation and work throughout a designated duration”. Thus, this is sort of an “in-between status” that offers individuals momentary employment and temporary remedy for employment deportation, however it does not cause long-term residency or citizenship status. [1] Therefore, an Employment Authorization Document should not be puzzled with a legalization file and it is neither U.S. permanent resident status nor U.S. citizenship status. The Employment Authorization Document is offered, employment as pointed out in the past, to qualified noncitizens as part of a reform or law that gives individuals short-lived legal status
Examples of “Temporarily Protected” noncitizens (eligible for an Employment Authorization Document)
Temporary Protected Status (TPS) – Under Temporary Protected Status, people are given relief from deportation as short-lived refugees in the United States. Under Temporary Protected Status, individuals are given secured status if discovered that “conditions because nation present a threat to personal security due to ongoing armed dispute or an environmental disaster”. This status is approved generally for 6 to 18 month periods, eligible for renewal unless the individual’s Temporary Protected Status is ended by U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services. If withdrawal of Temporary Protected Status takes place, the private faces exclusion or deportation proceedings. [13]
– Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals was authorized by President Obama in 2012; it supplied qualified undocumented youth “access to remedy for deportation, sustainable work permits, and momentary Social Security numbers”. [14]
Deferred Action for Parents of Americans (DAPA): If enacted, Deferred Action for Parents of Americans would supply moms and dads of Americans and Lawful Permanent Residents, defense from deportation and make them qualified for a Work Authorization Document. [15]
