    Job Offered Revoked When the Employer Found Out I Have a T Visa
    My question involves labor and employment law for the state of: New York
    I have a T visa which is a visa for people who are victims of human trafficking. This is what is said about employment when possessing a T visa:

    Q. Can I Legally Work in the United States If I Have T Nonimmigrant Status?

    A. Yes. When USCIS grants T nonimmigrant status, an Employment Authorization Document (EAD) is granted at the same time. The information for the EAD is generated from the Form I-914. There is no need to file a Form I-765, Application for Employment Authorization, along with the application for a T nonimmigrant status.
    I got offered and accepted a job for Google and they have now pulled the offer saying that they can't hire me under this visa. I believe this is illegal. I have e-mails showing that the job was offered and then the offer was retracted because of my visa status. How can I proceed from here? What can I do to get my job back?
    Thanks so much for your help:)!

    Are you the recipient of the original T visa (as opposed to a derivative T visa that a family member of an original T visa holder would receive)?

    Yes. I am the only one from my family here. I am the recipient of the original T visa.

    I believe this is illegal.

    File a claim with the EEOC.
