i have a question regarding the work permit here in las vegas. My papers have been filed already for petition last month and i'm waiting for my work permit to come out until october. Is it possible that i might get my permit before october or is it still affected by the recession? By the way i'm here in las vegas right now. And will my nclex and ielts will not expire once my papers has been filed?I'm talking about the work permit not the green card. thanks so much :)
