    Hi all,

    I want to know whether H4 ladies can work on sites like Freelancer,Elance work from home jobs etc.I heard that it is not legal to do it since payment will be made through pay pal and we will have to account for that to the Goverment.Is this true?

    Hi,

    I was on H4 visa but got my EAD recently. I am working as a Medical Transcriptionist from home. I did an online course for it which was for about a year. If anyone wants any information on that, please let me know.

    Thanks

    Hi KumariMouni and Swapnam,

    I did the medical transcription course from Careerstep which is a one year online course. You can go to their website Medical Transcription Training, Medical Coding Training and check it out. I also wanted to tell you that I had prior medical transcription experience in India before I came here so it was easier for me to do the course. Hope it is helpful. Let me know if you have any more questions.

    Thanks
    Jini

    Hi KumariMouni and Swapnam,

    I tried to reply back with the website information where I did my medical transcription online course but am not able to go through. Please send me a private message so that I can give you more information about it.

    Thanks

    Hi Jini

    I was in US for last two yrs and on L2 Visa. I got my work permit (EAD) and was working for last 1 yr with American company. But unfortunately my hubbys visa got denied during extension and we had to return to India. So rite now I m in India but will be returning to US shortly as my hubby's company has filed for new visa. So i was exploring some options and came across your post. Can you pass on some more details about this course? Also, i donot have prior experience in the same field so just want to check if it even makes sense to start studies again? BTW I am an MBA ( HR) from India.

    If you don't find a work that pays why don't you do some voluntary work until you can find something. You should be happy that your husband has work as I know many American who have lost their job and struggling to put food on the table and facing foreclosure. So what you are feeling is honestly not a major issue. If we feel like dying for every little thing then I guess 99% of people will be dead.
