Hi Peter – as H1B / E3 visa holders are only allowed to work for the company sponsoring them, are these holders able to provide contract work (separate to their regular work) to clients either in or out of the US provided the work is conducted and billed via a registered business entity in their home (or another non-US) country?
- proberts 11y agoThe short answer is no - although there can be exceptions when the only beneficiary of this work is outside the US.
- iktl 11y agoThanks for the reply, I (and others, I'm sure) appreciate you taking the time to answer these questions!
- disbelief 11y agoJust to clarify: in this case it may be okay if you're doing work for a client outside of the US and they are billed by a business entity that is also outside the US? So the deal-breaker is doing work for US companies?
- semerda 11y agoMight not be that easy esp if your o/s entity still has you as a shareholder/owner. And if that country has a taxation treaty with USA like Australia does. Then you need to reveal all your foreign activity.
