Can I sell things online (Amazon, my own website or ebay) with a J2 visa EAD?
Hi. I have the visa J-2 and just 1 week ago I can start working because I receive the work permit from USCIS.
I have read that with a J2 visa, I can start my own business but I cannot work for it (unless an American Citizen is willing to sponsor me for the H-1B visa). I would like to work from home and start a business online. Selling things from Amazon, eBay or from my own website (I have not got one yet). I would like to know: 1) If this is legal and possible without the H-1B visa 2) If I have to declare taxes to the IRS. 3) What I have to do. 4) Can I do it if I am a self-employed? (I really do not know the difference between being a self- employed and starting a business). Thank You very much |
