Ms Ratopul. Go to your international advisor and talk to him/her about applying a work permit. When they are convinced that you can apply one, they will prepare all the documetns for you. all you need to do is take that package and post it. Sometimes INS will ask for some more proof like your dad's earnings. But, don't panick when they send you a letter asking for some more information. Do not tell the INS or your International advisor that you work outside. They dont care and they dont want ot hear. If they hear they will deport you. So just be tight lipped and apply for your work permit. I have not heard a denied case.
