Volunteering on a K-1 Visa
Thinking of volunteering on a K-1 visa? Here's what you need to know:
No "Work" for Free: K-1 visas don't allow working, even volunteering that replaces paid positions.
Limited Volunteering: You can participate in genuine volunteer activities with no expectation of payment.
Focus on Charity & Community: Volunteer at organizations that don't take away jobs from US workers.
Not Sure? Consult an Attorney! Get personalized guidance to ensure your volunteering aligns with your visa status.
Remember: Volunteering is possible, but choose opportunities that comply with immigration rules.
