It really depends on what basis it was initially issued and whether that basis continues to exist.� If it does, you may be able to renew it but more likely than not, you no longer have eligibility for the work authorization document, in which case, you will not be able to extend it.� Why don't you clarify your immigration situation so as to explain how you initially got the work authorization document.
