As a general rule yes but the answer really depends on the basis of your green card application and where you are in the green card process.

As a general rule yes but the answer really depends on the basis of your green card application and where you are in the green card process.
- stalwart_l 9y agoMy basis is as an extraordinary research scientist in a specific basic science field that has strong overlap with data science. My I-140 is still pending (filed on June 1, I have a concurrent filing for a 485). The contract work that I would be doing would also leverage the skills that form the basis for my EB1 petition (so not work that would be totally outside of my stated expertise)
- proberts 9y agoYou should contact me so that I can get the specifics but it sounds like you should be able to do contract work without this affecting your green card application. To be clear, the issue is not being able to do contract work, the EAD allows you to do this; the issue is whether this could impact your green card application.
