Given the opportunity wag mong iexceed yung work restrictions especially may strict guidelines sila na in a period of 4 weeks, dapat all three fortnights, i.e. week1 and 2, 2 and 3, 3 and 4, 40 hours max.

Let's say na exceed mo, huwag mo ng ulitin. hahaha!

cash in hand is it illegal?

valiantboy

It is widely practised. Mas malaki yung tax kungidedeclare mo. Pero kung hindi mo idedeclare sa yo lahat--no tax, pero siempre pag nahuli ka lagot ka. Hindi ka masyadong protected although may rights ka pa naman. Pamimsan mas mababa yung rate. Malaki yata ang fine sa employer kung nahuli kasi dapat magbayad sila ng super, at wala kang benefits like sick leave, etc. Breach of visa kapag lumampas ng hours.


Hmm.. Bottom line.. You can still work cash on hand. May mga kilala ako nag ca cash on hand. Is it legal? Yes, pero may strict rules sila at malaki penalties pag hindi mo sinunod at nahuli ka.

Yan explanation sa akin ng migration at tax agent. Haha

Sir like what kind of penalties? but on top of it pwede kang magwork ng unlimited but Cash on hand jobs lang?

danyan2001us

stiff penalty if mahuli ka working outside of your work restrictions is i cancel yang student visa mo ....so don't risk it guys....

as what @valiantboy it is illegal to work cash on hand on a study visa, and it is breach of a student visa condition to work for more than 20hrs per week.
