Letter of Revocation

There may be certain conditions that would cause a school to revoke a work permit. A primary reason for revoking occurs when the student dis-enrolls from the school. The school is responsible for information an employer that the Work Permit has been revoked.

Defining Revocation Reasons

  • From the Work Permit tab for any student, click on the Define Revocation Reasons link at the bottom-center of the page.
  • You will see “pre-loaded” revocation reasons in this area; however you can edit or add reasons to fit your program. You will be prompted to use one of these “revocation reasons” when creating a “Letter to Revoke”.

Creating a Letter of Revocation

  • Click the blue arrow next to a “Finalized” Work Permit
  • Click on the Revoke this Permit button.

  • From the “Reason” dropdown, select the appropriate revoke reason.

  • CONFIRM that you wish to generate this Letter and your Letter of Revocation will replace the Work Permit. You will now need to mail or email this Letter of Revocation to the Employer. Record the date the letter was sent at the top of the page.
  • Until then, the letter status will be reported as “Revoked, Letter Pending”. Once the letter is mailed/emailed and the date has been input, the status will change to “Revoked, Letter Sent”.

Work Permit Permission Group Notice: 

To maintain compliance, the full functionality of Work Permits has always been restricted to the specific group, "Work Permits Administrator." This restriction is in place because the staff member signing off on a permit must be credentialed and authorized to do so. We intentionally limited this authorization to prevent unintended users from illegally approving work permits.

The functionality highlighted in the screenshots, which pertains to the process of approving work permits (and may involve sensitive information such as Social Security Numbers), is also limited exclusively to the Work Permits Administrator group.
