Hi there: thank you for your help.

I have a question... I have been in the US since 2004 under a F1 visa and now I decided to invest some money on Stock... My first question is if It's all right for a international student to invest money on stock, since they don't allow you to work off campus... what I'm trying to say is that buying stock is not going to affect my status, right?
Thank you very much

Investing in stock is NOT considered work and is perfectly okay for F-1 students.
