Sportsbetting Without Work Permit/Green Card

[A031 3]

Hello, 

 

Is my soon to be wife able to use sportsbooks? I matched bet (promos, both side errors. etc.) so it is always profitable and I was wondering if this would be considered "work" for her and disqualify her from further citizenship proceedings. Additionally, she does not have a credit card or bank account yet and I wonder how we go about getting those since she is a non-citizen.

 

Thanks for the help!

I cannot answer about sports betting.

 

However, do you have a bank account and credit card? If you do you can add her jointly to those accounts. Getting an SSN beforehand is helpful in doing so.

tourists are allowed to gamble/ play the lotto. She should be fine.
