Q: Please help me i want to help my mom a little. We basically are going thru a hard time right now and we need money...... please give me some ideas on places that hire 14 year olds... thank you for your answer really apreciate it
A: Go with one of your parents to the nearest office of Workforce Solutions - Alamo (Alamo Worksouce) and have your parent ask the Customer Service rep for an Age of Consent form. Have the parent fill it out and sign it,then mail it to the address on the form. You will be receiving a Workers permit. Under federal law,you have to be sixteen to work in most non farm jobs. While you're waiting for your permit to arrive,take your birth certificate and Social Security card to Department of Motor Vehicles to get yourself an "Under 21" state issued ID card. Everywhere you apply for work,you'll have to submit a photo copy of your permit until you become sixteen. We all have to start somewhere,so the best place I can recommend is fast food. Also while you're at it,go to the following web site: www.workintexas.com Click on "Register As Job Seeker" Here,you're going to regiter with the State of Texas for work. You need to indicate personal info,what type of work do you want and what level of pay do you want for that work. Do you want full time or part time? What part of the city do you want to work in? Fill in al required info such as education level and any experience you might have. Over time,you will need to update your info as you get older and or change jobs.
