Indian HIB eligible deductions and is it OK to do 1099 consulting while on W2?
Hello:
I am confused over two points.
1) I am on H1B visa from India, here 2 years. My tax was done by IBSN. I am a W2 employee at a major US corp. I drive commuting miles and pay rent, have no other unreimbursed employee expenses.
My tax returns lists deductions for laundry, rental fees, meals and ent, and commuting mileage. Is this correct?
2) I wish to open a part time computer consulting company on the side. Is this allowed under the visa rules while being a W2 employee. If so, can someone please tell me the section of code.
Many thanks in advance. :)
