Business on H4 EAD and Visa Stamping experience

[waiting12345]

Can we start a home business on H4 EAD?

 

If yes, has anyone done so and then gone for Visa Stamping? I am seeing that I will have to list the business under "Employment History" in the DS160 form to get visa appointment, right?

 

Has anyone had any experience stamping visa while doing a business on H4 EAD? What did the Visa Officer ask? Just concerned as this will be my first time stamping after starting the business on H4 EAD.

Yes H4 EAD provides unrestricted employment including self business.. 

 

if you feel you have a business plan then reach out to CPA and attorney (this will shed your savings a bit) but i hope you mind if you really have innovative business plan.  

 

As long as you have proper documentation and your business does not violate any laws (State & federal) it should not be any issue for visa

 

Note :  EAD is just an employment authorization doc to work, but however the dependent is completely entitled for H4 visa but nothing to do with EAD..

 

 

Not a legal advice. Use of this information is strictly at your own risk
