Comments:The technical term for this is Employment Authorization Document. Both 'Work Authorization' and 'Work Permit' are colloquial forms. See Employment Authorization Document (EAD). Additionally, be careful with how you formulate this expression, as '¿le dieron permiso de trabajar?' does not mean the same thing as '¿le dieron un permiso de trabajo?'
