Work permit for homeschoolers?

Question

where can you get a work permit signed if you were homeschooled in high school?

Answer 1

Another question always asked is about work permits.

Most states have only appointed public school superintendents as the "issuing officer" for the work permit. Any homeschooler can go to his/her local school district to get a work permit in any state. Some private schools are issuing officers as well, and in some states a homeschooler can get the permit from the state. A student enrolled in a private school may obtain a work permit from their local public high school upon request. However, public high schools do not like issuing them to home schoolers and sometimes question the validity of the private school of enrollment.

Home school programs can obtain the paperwork to issue work permits to their students. The process involves:

1. A student identifying a work place which desires to hire them,

2. Obtaining a work permit application from your school, and

3. Returning the filled out form to your school, which will then issue a work permit. The issuing school has the responsibility, within the law, to set the maximum number of hours a student can work per week, verify the student's continuance in their studies, and retains the right to revoke the work permit when necessary.
