    Online Survey

    Hi all ,
    i am a new member of this site.I really liked the way of interaction on this site.I just wanted to know that it is legal to do online survey & get paid by paypal on H4 visa.
    Any one tried online survey on H4 visa?Getting money on ur husband's account by paypal would not create any legal problem in future?

    Hello Juhi,

    Thanks for letting me know that online survey was illegal.
    I was checking the sites & in TERMS it is written that u should be resident of USA.Its not written that u should be citizen of USA. I think u can do it but still not sure.I dont want to do any illegal work even for $1.As I am trying to get a job these days & searching for H1 sponsers.
    Any way its was nice to see ur reply.

    Hello Kajol,

    I am in North edison and i am an engineer,having two kids( 7 &2 yrs old.).
    Where do u live?
    Its would be nice to know you..

    Need to find an alternative way!

    Taking work-at-home surveys and getting paid through your husband's SSN wouldn't work. A H1B visa holder cannot earn income from anyone other than his H1B sponsor company. That rules out you getting paid on his SSN. Even though, I am not exactly sure of the complications this will lead to, we are better off not taking risk in this situation.

    Having said that, there are a couple of safe alternatives..
    - Do you have a brother, sister or close relative who is a Green Card holder. Maybe you can get paid through their SSN?
    - Can you do the survey here, but get paid in India?

    We have to find creative alternatives if we have to make money as H4. The easiest way out is to just give up in the face of these obstacles.

    Respect for your time

    Hi Shilpi,

    Sorry for the late response. When you get into any work, you will start learning a couple of tricks of the trade that will make you more productive as time goes by. Taking home based surveys is also the same way.

    Here is an example. When you get some experience taking home based surveys, you will start respecting your time more than you do now. Initially, I jumped at opportunities that will pay me $10 for an hour long survey. Nowadays, I try to find out the surveys that will pay me the maximum money for the minimum time spent. You will gain that experience with time.
