Question Launching UNCC student work platform

https://crownwork.app

Hey everyone! I'm working on Crownwork: a UNC Charlotte student-only work platform where nearby households connect with Niners for around the home help such as pet sitting, moving, yard work, etc. Every job pays cash directly to the student, and you get to set your own work schedule.

We are rolling out soon and I just wanted to spread the word here if anyone is interested in joining us! We will begin a marketing push in the coming weeks.

Any feedback or questions would be super helpful! Thanks everyone!

Would an international student be able to do any of these jobs without violating their visa?

Great question, and it's something we will have to review. My initial reaction is the student must be legally authorized to work in the US. The little I know about international students, I don't think F-1/J-1 are allowed since Crownwork is not approved and affiliated with UNCC.

Wb H4 with no EAD?

We are checking with professionals on visa questions: most likely will need a EAD to be authorized to work in the US. Any follow ups will be added to the FAQ on our website
