Hi All, I recently created a blog in blogspot.com and I would like to keep google ads. I live in US.I came to know that we need to pay tax for the earnings we earn from google adsense. The question is, I am on H4(Dependent Visa) where I am not eligible to earn and pay taxes. So, I do not have SSN but have TIN. So, Am I still elligible for google adsense? If not, my husband is on H1B visa and working as a s/w professional. Is he eligilble for google adsene? Or would it be a problem for him according to laws of Immigration? I do not have any idea on this. So people who are familiar about this might please answer to my Q. Thanks in advance. Regards, Quest2010.
if you have a bank account in your home country, sign up with your home address. I travel at least 9 month a year but let all my adsense stuff run over my bank account back home. You can also hold your adsense payments until you are home again. NP if you are from central europe - Problem: if you are from a country where G only sends checks or WU transfers. You shouldnt sign up with a US address unless you want to stay forever.
Why don't you apply in the name of your husband? If you stay in US, then just apply with the bank details.
I'll take "85% of DP posts" for $400, Alex. OP, I'd be careful about having your payments held for several months...if anything were to happen to your account, it's quite possible that ALL funds would be forfeit. Best to take what you can as it comes.
