Your privacy
We ask for dates, never documents.
See helps you plan. It does not need your papers to do that.
We never ask for
- Your Social Security number, A-number or SEVIS ID
- Your passport or its number
- Pictures of your visa or EAD card
- Your date of birth or salary history
Information only, not legal advice. Always confirm your dates with your school's DSO or an immigration attorney.
Questions
About your dates.
Where do the dates come from?
From you, once. You enter your work permit dates and the unemployment days you have used, and See does the counting. Rules like the 90-day limit come from official sources, and we review them regularly.
Is this legal advice?
No. The Work Authorization Center is information only. Always confirm your dates with your school's DSO or an immigration attorney.
Can employers see my dates?
Only if you choose to share them. Every employer sees the same two answers: can you work in the US now, and will you need sponsorship. Anything more is your call.
What if the rules change?
Durations and deadlines live in a reviewed rules table, not in the app itself, so we can update them quickly. Policy updates show the date we last checked them and a link to the source.
