Hello everyone!

Havent posted here in a long time. Hope you all are well. Having DACA has opened a lot of doors for many people and it's great to see that

Question, if one wanted to be employed by a federal agency or organization like CDC (Centers for Disease Control), how difficult would that be? I think they only accept citizens but make exceptions (as per: https://help.usajobs.gov/index.php/E...f_Non-citizens)
Does having Work Authorization count or not-count?

Not that im planning on applying anytime soon...just wondering what my options are..

Thanks!!!!

I would do research into becoming an "independent contractor" when it comes to working for the Federal Government. Other than that, for the most part, federal jobs require that you are a US citizen. Sorry. Try looking for jobs at the State level! Do NOT provide your EAD unless they ask you for it. Just give them the SS number which clearly says "Valid for work with DHS authorization."
