I am a 17 year old mother, Do I need a workers permit to get a job? If so how do I get one?

It depends on where you live.

I can only speak for the state of Virginia, if that's where you live, the answer is no.

If nobody else answers, you can call your local labor board and they should be able to advise you on any regulations.

However, 17 is pretty close to 18 (the magic age) so I'd say, that no matter where you live, you should be fine, as long as it doesn't interfere with school.

Having a child doesn't factor into this.

Are you asking about working papers? What State?
