What is your immigration status? If green card, you can work any job. If student, it's advisable not to work on cash specially if you don't know much about USA immigration rules. Students are not allowed to work illegally, and if caught working either on cash or social security, you might loose your student status. Some students work but are very careful and smart to avoid school official or immigration official

dear respected friend,

thank you for your feedback. my currently immigration status is green card . i also want to go college in near future to get some vocational training. but for now i want to adjust in usa. i dont want to stay idle and kill time. i want to do job in local shop but the owner is paying cash as per day basis. what do you advise in this situation

You can work on cash, no issues.

Unless u don’t have to sponsor someone in near future or need state basic health insurance cash.

Greencard cha bhane cash ma kaam garda dherai benefit huncha boro.Foodstamp,medicaid sabai parcha.ani ghar nabhaye public housing pani paucha.

dear respected friends,
thank you very much for your valuable advise and also thank you very much for welcoming me. i decide to work in the same job form 01/03/2020 until i get good new job at the same time i am also searching a better job.

’mGreencard cha bhane cash ma kaam garda dherai benefit huncha boro.Foodstamp,medicaid sabai parcha.ani ghar nabhaye public housing pani paucha.’”. Sabai state mata haina hola. There is a new public charge rule, which could affect future Naturalization process. Even though it does not affect the earning now, Future SS benefits ta hunna ni. You miss out credit on Social security. Ranger 1, since you are new here, do as much you can work. Thorai earning could help in school n all, but won’t help to sponsor somebody from Nepal. Don’t make decisions Just with Sajha forums. Ailey gareko sano galti le voli asar garcha

dear respected rocbkb.
thank you very much for your in detail explanation . this is very informative . do you think working 1 2 month in cash until alternate will put me in danger zone ?

so far my all family are in USA as a green card winner. due to big family i have prssure to work as soon as possible. he is offering me 120 usd per day for 10 hour shift. without working i am only able to sustain 6 months in usa ? how do you solve my situation if you were in my place.
thank you

I’m not saying don’t do it. Money looks okay and no other options you have to do it. You making almost 4K per months. That’s not bad. May be if you have a big family try moving to a small city- where you have companies like Amazon, UPS, or others. Even Amazon starts with 15-17 bucks per hour, good insurance and school opportunities
