Reason for Filing Form I-566

Dependent Employment Authorization

Your request for employment authorization as an A, G, or NATO dependent may be based on either:

1. A formal, written bilateral agreement between the United States and the country that employs the principal alien;

2. If one of the provisions in Items 1. - 4. below applies to you, contact the diplomatic mission, international

organization, USLO to NATO/HQ SACT, or the Defense Attaché’s Office at the embassy of the NATO member that

employs the principal alien; or

3. The G-4 dependent employment regulations found in 8 CFR 214.2(g).

If one of these provisions applies, you must also show that you are an eligible dependent of a principal alien. Eligible

dependents are the:

1. Spouse or unmarried child under 21years of age;

2. Dependent unmarried son or daughter who is a full-time, post-secondary student between 21 and 23 years of age (or

between 21 and 25 years of age under certain bilateral agreements);

3. Dependent unmarried son or daughter who is mentally or physically unable to care for him or herself and cannot

establish his or her own household; or

4. Other dependent recognized by the DOS as qualifying (only applicable to dependents of A or G principal aliens).

If you meet one of these conditions and believe you are eligible to apply for employment authorization, complete Parts 1.,

2., 3. (Select box 1.a., 1.b., or 1.c.), and 4. on Form I-566. If an interpreter or preparer assisted you, they must fill out and

sign Part 5. and/or Part 6.

If you have a question about which provision and dependent category applies to you, contact your diplomatic mission or

international organization. If you are a NATO dependent, contact one of the following: USLO to NATO/HQ SACT (if

your serving spouse or parent is posted at, to include those attached in support of, NATO/HQ SACT, or posted at a NATO

Agency in the United States); or The Defense Attaché’s Office at the embassy of the NATO member that employs the

principal alien (if your serving spouse or parent, including military and civilian employees of the sending nation, is posted

throughout the United States on NATO or National orders or employment contract, but who are not affiliated with NATO

HQ SACT or a NATO Agency).

As an alternative, you can send an email to the DOS OFM at OFM-EAD@state.gov.
