Additional Income on H1-B?

[legalInDC]

Hi all,
I have been waiting on my green card for over 4 years now. In the meantime, I am finding myself in need of more money.

I am wondering how I can make additional income legally. I hear that I can invest in stocks. But can I take online jobs/gigs, say from Craigslist or have my own income-generating blogs and have the money be deposited on an account in my home country where I can have as many incomes as possible?

It makes no sense for me to get an EAD at this point.

I am sorry if this question sounds stupid, I am not very knowledgeable when it comes to taxes etc.

Hey dude, are you ok? Nobody needs a EAD if one has a GC? And even if you want to get one they wouldn't give it to you anyway.

He said he's been waiting for a Green Card for 4 years now - he doesn't have one.

Thanks, my bad.
