You cant do volunteer work if it takes the work away from someone who can get paid for it

So most voleenter work can only be done for non profit organisations

You can't work in any position that is normally a paid position whether or not you are taking it away from someone else.

You can't volunteer for a position for which you will later be paid or for which someone else doing the same job would be paid. Sorry.

Dont know if you want to take any chances but actually there is a loophole which says that because you are married to a USC you will be "forgiven" for working before you are really meant to.
I'm not advising you to one thing or another, but letting you know about the loophole. whistling.gif
(By the way, my attorney told me this)
