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.
What the wood needs is acclimation, and it is the process of getting your new floors used to the conditions inside your house (temperature and humidity). Depending on the type of flooring the acclimation time can vary between 48 and 96 hours. This is an important step in the flooring installation process. There are flooring products which donât need to acclimate. Examples are tile, carpet and some engineered hardwood.
