Hi everyone

I'm wondering about my job in my home country. It's a part time accounting job that is completely remote. Does that count as "working in the US" even if I log on to a server physically located in Iceland to do this job? Company is located there and all business is there. Taxes are paid in Iceland while I wait, salary is paid into an account over there etc. 

Is this a gray area or do I have to quit this job while the AOS is going on?

 

One other question. The intent has been to.move over to the US, using the consular route but a few setbacks this summer had me so exhausted that I didn't have it in me to go back. So we decided to just go ahead and file I130 and 485 concurrently right before the 90 days were up 🙄

On a scale of 1 to 10, how much trouble am I in with that do you think?

It is not a grey are, what matters is where you are.

 

US residents have to file taxes on their world wide income.
