Online selling on H4

Post by bizkit »

Hi, I'm on a H1 visa and my wife is on H4. She wanted to join one of those online t-shirt websites where you upload t-shirt designs and when someone orders it, they would make and ship the t-shirt to the buyer, keep a chunk of the profit and give the rest to you.
Is this allowed on H4? I know she can't have any salaried employment, but would selling stuff online count as well?
Would this be allowed for me? (H1B)

Thanks.

This is a forerum about immigration TO canada, not TO US.

But, in short, no. Since it is not the manner of payment, butr th fact that she is WORKING, which requires she have authorization -- which H4 does not authrize.
nelsona non grata. Non pro. Please Search previous posts, no situation is unique as you might think. Happy Browsing :D
