Immigration Status
Individuals who are non-US Citizens or US Nationals may be able to receive compensation depending on their circumstances. The workgroup member may be informed that they should contact a personal immigration attorney regarding whether receipt of payment would impact their individual immigration status. Community Compensation should not be considered a public charge. Agencies may contact their assigned AAG with particular questions about individuals with general employment authorization or agency-specific immigration status (H-1B), or other specific questions regarding an agency’s ability to provide compensation to a particular participant.
