Dear all,
I have entered the US in June on a J2 visa. At that time I was in a post-doc position in India. Since due to covid everything was going online, I stayed in the US and worked in India in online mode. My position in India ended in Dec and I wanted to find a job in the US. So I applied for EAD in Dec and already received the EAD and SSN. Now I am hearing that working in the home country while staying in the USA with a J2 visa is illegal if you don't have an EAD. I am planning to visit India next month and I will need to get my VISA stamped. Will I face a problem in getting my visa stamped?
