I know that few people who are on H1 run the quickstar business (direct marketing etc). Is it legal? As far as I know in order to work for any business you need to have work authorization. Then without any kind of work authorization can anyone work on a profitable businesses like quickstart? or quickstar doesn't fall under a business or Am I missing something? Any comments?

its illegal on H-b.dont get into these things man. There are many business like this. these are called MLM. multi-level-marketing or network marketing.you will endup spending more and more money. this bizz already saturated. only people on top make money on this. by close friend was involved in this and lost thousands( not at once but over period of time) and precious time.

they will ask to spend $250-$300 initially. later on the real thing comes. the tools for business.. tapes and other stuff and what not.. these tools are manufactured by the people on top for less money. u dont get these anywhere else to buy cheap. (real profit is on these..only top group will get $$$) they will discourage u if you are not in this tool buying program. you are looking to spend $600 -$700 everymonth. Lot of travelling, Gas all other expenses. u need to go to grocery shops, book stores and try to meet people and get their names even if they dont like you.

the worst thing is u will lose your friends. I really feel pity for my friend. its never too late get out of this.

I am not sure if it is legal or not, but i am sure that it's (quickstar) a path to hell. You won't make a penny but you will lose all your friends and self respect. Many people even lose their jobs because of over involvement in this dirty game.
 
Hey Jamalakadi1 and dsatish,

I really appreciate your concern guys.. That's nice of you two. I totally agree with you. But as a caveat, I have seen two of my close friends making it in millions in this quickstar business.. There was a news item on msnbc about falsehood of quickstar. My main intention of posting this was to know about legality of working for quickstar! Coz, quickstar issues a 1090 at the end of a tax year and you can claim lot of expenses on 1090 and hence I thought it's a good option to be a member for namesake.. But if that's not legal, then I can't claim any on 1090 anyways! Thanks for sharing your thoughts anyways..

If they say they are making millions ask them to show the checks. Also ask for Profit and loss financial statement which has all expenses.

FYI, those people brag about family values but people on the top who give lectures got divorced . find out why. Mr Pal Miller splitup with his wife debbie miller and most of all so..called.. the great bill britt (brit worldwide)of separated from his wife.

there is an FBI investigation on pyramid toppers about their illegal schemes.
search the google you will find it with news clippers.

its just another dirty game. dont fall into the trap.

If your friends really made so much money, they would have quit their jobs and must be roaming in mercedez? Do they ? I doubt. They might be working on the same old jobs and having no better than a corolla or a used Accord :p . Any way, people have very cheap opinion of any one talking about Amway or Quixtar . You better be aware of that.

My surprise is lot of IIT guys are in to it. Whats wrong with them.

Any how AMWAY WENT TO WRONG WAY, When they start doing so called E-commerce.
 
I agree with JoeF and others about Quickstar and other scams. There are a few at the top of "the chain" who make some money. But their very existence depends on new innocent recruits.

The scouts for Amway etc are usually smooth talking people out to con you. They are trained to live a life of lies.
 
commission Income

The argument given by quickstar and other people who do this kind of business is that this is comission income. You are not working any specific hours for it. So its legal. I haven't heard of any one going to jail or being deported because of working in a network marketing company like quickstar. So it seems like it might be legal or how would so many people do it and get away with it? My question is.. is commission income or referral bonus legal when you are on H1? There are many ads about refer people to us who want to buy or sell a house we will pay u $500. Is that income illegal while we are on H1/F1? If I buy a lot of stuff and sell them on ebay or Amazon.com is that illegal income while I am on H1? If I buy and sell a house for profit, is that illegal income while I am on H1? This is confusing.. I would appreciate anyone who really knows and can give some idea about what other income outside of your paycheck is legal while on H1 and what not. Reference to any legal document or other links will be appreciated..
