An employer in Florida hired an employee, and asked her to provide documentation of her lawful presence in the U.S. After delaying, she admitted that she overstayed a visa, and is not authorized to work in the United States. She is a very promising employee, and the employer would like to give her a job while she straightens out her immigration situation. She is married and is trying to get a Green Card through her husband. Can the employer give her a job despite her being unlawfully present?
