Opportunities for non-working wife

Recently got married, on H1-B, no I140 yet. What things my wife can do in her free time? Looking for some volunteering work or not-for-profit work where she will be able to get some US work/culture experience, preferably in the IT/Software area. E.g. where she'll be able to write some code, design a website for not-for-profit org. etc. She's planning to study in the long run, however that's not possible for another 6-12months. Or any other recommendations that you may have are welcome.

She can do whatever she wants to do. Her gender is irrelevant.

No. They can’t work and get paid. They can’t volunteer to work unpaid for a job which otherwise would be a paid job for someone else. In short, they can’t do whatever they want to do.

Are you saying that because she's a woman?

Girls Who Code might have some teaching opportunities for her.

He/She can take University job. H1B for non profit don't go via lottery.

Blog, Shopify, Amazon, Affiliate Marketing... There are a lot of ways she can create an income from home where she'll make more than she would working.

She should go to the church. It’s s good way to spend time, learn about culture, and of course find the Right Way to s True and Only God

I think we should not allow people on visa to do this. They come from a foreign country and create more traffic on our path to True and Only God

Bay area

Do what everyone who doesn't legally immigrate does - steal an identity or work under the table for almost nothing

Oath aeueonx OP Jun 25, 2019

Thanks. But no.

Charter xlyq06 Jun 25, 2019

Ah ok. I tried. Best of luck though - the NP route is probably the best for now

Let her work in India till she can get her admits.

Facebook bustycoder Jun 27, 2019

Why India ? Is it easy to get a work visa for India?

eBay JAPv66 Jun 29, 2019

It is most likely that OP is from India.
