Consequently, for some positions, IINE staff may be required to show proof of vaccination, and in others, IINE staff will be supporting clients who are required by law to have proof of vaccination in order to adjust their status in the United States.

    US Work Eligibility Notice

    This position requires lawful authorization to work in the United States, and IINE is unable to provide visa sponsorship in connection with this.
