Can J-2 dependents get work permission? J-2 dependents may apply to the USCIS for work permission as long as that work is not to provide financial support for the J-1. Processing by USCIS takes an average of 90 days. It is not necessary for a J-2 to show proof of special skills or a job offer to receive a work permit.
To determine how many square feet you need, measure the room(s) length by its width. Example: if you have a room that is 10' long by 10' wide you would multiply those numbers together, the amount of square footage = 100 sq. ft. Now, with wood flooring you must add a 5% waste factor for cutting and fitting waste and to cover a few boards that you may not want to use. Using the example above you would want to add 5% to your order which would mean that you would need a total of 105 sf.
Add their totals and write them down for later reference. Use the tape measure to check the depth of each tread, from front to back. Measure the height of each riser, from the bottom of the preceding step to the lip of the next higher up or vice versa. Check the width of the stairs with the tape measure. Multiply this number by either the height of the riser or the depth of the tread to get your measurements for how much material you need for each section. Add the two sections together to get your total square footage.
