What are considered passive online income for H-1B visa holder?
Dear all,
I am wondering is there any certain type of online income that can be considered as "passive" income for H-1B visa holder?(the only other source of income H-1B visa holder allowed to have is passive income)
Something that can generate around 0 per month (my salary is not enough to cover my family – I have cut everything up to the bone).
I was thinking something like Stock Photography or any other passive online income.
Or… did somebody know, can H-1B visa holder apply for "economy hardship" so that he/she can get a temporary, "flexible" working permit that can be used to perform any work for any company (I know that F-1 visa holder can do that)?
The company I work for doesn’t allow me to ask this question to the company’s immigration lawyer as they said that it will incure "unecessary" expenses.
I really appreciate any help/advice to solve my financial hardship.
Thanks a lot.
What I have in mind is online income that’s considered passive income (H-1B can have passive income), something like Google AdSense, Stock Photography, etc.

Hi,
May be you can have a look on this

Im not sure you would consider passive income, but no harm you take a look.
You have work authorization for one company only. The one that is listed on your paperwork
Only something illegal and under the table like selling drugs or porn.
you can always find another company to sponsor your 2nd H1b (PART-TIME) as long as it doesn’t violate the policy of your current sponsored company and your primary H1b status. H1b holders have 2 H1b visas.
OR
you can look for higher paid job with another employer to sponsor your H1b visa.
i haven’t heard of any "economic hardship employment authorization" or similar type of flexible work authorization that allow h1b holders to get additional income without violate their status.
good luck.
