Working in the U.S.?
Posted date : Dec 13, 2019.
Hi there. I would like to spend five months in a rural cabin in North Carolina for the purpose of writing a book − is this considered working? Also, I support myself through day trading my own capital. Is this considered working?
Thanks so much!

Ed.: You should be fine. One of the primary tests is that you would take a job away from an American citizen. You would not be doing that. I do lots of day trading and have been writing our winter magazines in the U.S. for 25 years without incident. Send us a copy of the book when it is done, for fun.
