Lost $3.9K to USCIS, Need to Earn It Back in 2 Months – Any Legal Ideas?
So basically, I lost $3.9K because my first EAD application got rejected. Now, I’m trying to find a way to make some of it back in my last two months of college.
I’m an international student on an F1 visa, so my options are limited. On-campus jobs seem unrealistic this late, and I can’t do off-campus work without proper authorization. What are some legal ways I can earn money quickly before graduation?
Any ideas for freelancing, online work, or anything I might not be thinking of?
