Hi,

Not that my fiance is planning on doing this, but my mom wanted to know what would happen.

So my question is, if my fiance (after we are married but before EAD) managed to find a job that would pay him cash/under the table, what would happen if he were caught? I know there are some penalties to the company that hired him, but what would happen to him?

Thanks!

He could be charged with tax evasion. But it likely won't happen. Even US citizens work under the table. I wouldn't recommend it, however. It's like taking money out of your own pocket in the long run- nothing goes to social security.

Moving to WORK/Travel during immigrations...

Most likely nothing. However most legitimate employers do check for employment authorization... The responsibility is on the employer to determine this.

The greatest risk would be if there was a workplace inspection and he was found to working without authorization. Then he would be subject to prosecution. Worst case scenario - deportation. Chances are low. Risks are for you to judge.
