How to earn money in the USA without a working license?

How to earn money in the USA without a working license?
A friend of mine just got married to a US citizen, and meanwhile his waiting for his working license and right to stay here he cannot work and also not leave the country. Is there anyway my friend from Norway legally can make some money in the USA while he is waiting? He told me it would take approximately 1-2 years before he will get his greencard, and 2-6 months before he will get his temporary working license while waiting for his greencard.

Find something he can make and sale. Americans love stuff from other cultures.

Maybe as a day laborer, or in a small business like landscaping, or painting peoples houses, etc. A good way is cleaning up jobsites for homebuilders.

Millions are working illegally. I'm sure there is a way. How is it possible that he's here' legally but not to work? Is it a tourist visa? That seems odd. It seems he's not in compliance with the law if he has no work permit, but is planning on working. No one else takes it seriously, though, why does he care if he breaks the law, millions are doing it every day.

I had a friend from Zimbabwe in college. She once told me all she was allowed to do in her time here was clean houses. Can he make things? Maybe he can sell stuff on ebay or something. What skills does he have?
5 :
Well, I hope she's rich, 'cause it sucks to be him! LOL That's just the point, the mad rush for immigration is causing people to do all kinds of things, including break the law.

I know someone who runs a landscapping business and he doesnt have a working liscense. We just had him do our patio and fence and he did a wonderful job for a lot less

Why do people make more money in Qatar, Luxembourg, Norway, and Singapore than the USA?
I was checking out GDP per a capita and it's kind of sad to see America no longer is leading. Does this not worry other Americans? This site lists three sources.. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_GDP_(PPP)_per_capita It's expense for Americans who travel in Europe cause our dollar is devalued so bad. The Euro is worth more... - Yeah it's going to cost more USD to buy something in Euro.... - It's not that hard to see Cold hard fact and V2... Thank you Great answers

Obama can find the solution if he listens to this man: http://www.ontheissues.org/2008/Barack_Obama_Free_Trade.htm OBAMA: For far too long, certainly during the course of the Bush administration with the support of Sen. McCain, the attitude has been that any trade agreement is a good trade agreement. And NAFTA did not have enforceable labor agreements and environmental agreements. And what I said was we should include those and make them enforceable. In the same way that we should enforce rules against China manipulating its currency to make our exports more expensive and their exports to us cheaper. And when it comes to South Korea, we’ve got a trade agreement up right now, they are sending hundreds of thousands of South Korean cars into the US. That’s all good. We can only get 4,000 to 5,000 into South Korea. That is not free trade. We’ve got to have a president who is going to advocate on behalf of American businesses and American workers and I make no apology for that Source: 2008 third presidential debate against John McCain Oct 15, 2008 Global trade is unsustainable if it favors only the few This is the moment when we must build on the wealth that open markets have created, and share its benefits more equitably. Trade has been a cornerstone of our growth and global development. But we will not be able to sustain this growth if it favors the few, and not the many. Together, we must forge trade that truly rewards the work that creates wealth, with meaningful protections for our people and our planet. This is the moment for trade that is free and fair for all. Source: Speech in Berlin, in Change We Can Believe In, p.268 Jul 24, 2008 What can you do when Obama himself articulates the problem and the solution in detail, with reasons, then he refuses to listen to himself after he takes office? Since he has taken office, he has done the exact opposite of what he himself declared during the campaign.

We have a lot more poor people to average in than they do.
4 :
ummmmmmmmmmmmmmm have you seen the sizes of these tiny countries???
5 :
I don't know, because our Standard of Living is Much Higher. Obama will change that.

It has been this way for a long time. The US hasn't led in decades. Norway, unknown to most, is the worlds 3rd largest exporter of oil and the country only has 4 million people. Qatar- same reason: lots of oil and a small population. Luxembourg is the world's second largest investment fund center. All sorts of major corps are based there because of that - ebay, skype, etc. The country also has less than half a million people Singapore- Has the freest markets in the world ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Singapore#Economy ) It has one of the busiest ports in the world. The population is under 5 million. There you go!

Although I am not a big fan of Lou Dobbs, but "war on middle class" has it consequences. Many Americans still prefer to be blind about widening gap between riches and poor. Diminishing middle class is the result why USA is becoming more like Latin America and why ,on average, GDP per capita is falling. Qatar and Norway also have high revenues from oil. It helps.
8 :
It may because half of their pay dosen't have to go to the worthless, like here in the USA.

How much would a profession like this make in norway?

How much would a profession like this make in norway?
If you happen to be a Finishing Contractor in Norway, as in freelance, would you be making a lot of money? Lets say u live outside of Oslo? Are people in this profession considered wealthy, or just have enough to feed a family of 2-3? As a Finishing contractor, and a strong believer of the Christian Faith, can he also be an elder of a church there? putting together financial and professional status...?

You'd be around average income I think based on the wages for full time employees in construction. It will vary though as depending on the specific business they may have specialist skills, etc that command a higher premium. Depends which church he's in, not sure the church of Norway has elders, but they do have a parish council. Obviously there are other churches. I take it he speaks Norwegian as that would be a bit of a stumbling block
2 :
The pay of most jobs in Norway is fairly equal, meaning people generally earn a good living wage but few are wealthy. Taxes increase as salary increases. If you have a family, both parents usually work, as living on one wage in a country as expensive as Norway isn't ideal. I don't think the Church of Norway has elders either, but free churches usually do, although financial/professional status doesn't really play a part. Norway is statistically the least religious country in the western world though, which means you may not be satisfied with the options and community. Only 36% consider themselves religious at all, and less than 3% attend church regularly (monthly or more). I actually don't know anyone that goes to church and the figures are even lower in Oslo. As mentioned above, either of your questions would require a fluent Scandinavian language. Norwegians speak excellent English, but it's not the language of business or social life here.

I have understood, Franchising in Norway are taking again a growth throughout the country, therefore a Franchise Manager, has good demand. Also there are a lot demand: Wind Farm Specialist Geophysical Specialist Account Technology Specialist Planning Engineer That country is one of the richest in the world, its activity related to exploitation of oil and coal places in that position. The fishing industry is fully developed. That's where you find a career or work related to these economic activities are always going to need specialists and they pay lucrative wages. OK
2 :
you could take a 4 year education in something construction related and then go offshore. You'll practicly be living at the platforms from here to there though, so it isn't family friendly. Good money though
