Key Points:
Additional Information: The Federal Register notice describes eligible Palestinians and acceptable documentation, such as a Palestinian Authority passport or identification card, and provides instructions on how to apply for the DED-based EAD. In addition, DHS published a Special Student Relief notice for Palestinian F-1 nonimmigrant students so that eligible students may request employment authorization, work an increased number of hours while school is in session and reduce their course load while continuing to maintain F-1 status through the DED period.
