Is there a way to find a part time job in New York that would give me the money to live there for 3 months?
I will be under a J1 visa, and they say with this visa i can do only my internship and no other jobs. But i will have a Social Security Number, and i heard to hold this number it's what matters to be hired from an employer.
If someone knows some helpful informations, i would be very greatful!

I want to open a secret to you. I'm a J1 visa visitor, going to the US second time. you can be and work wherever you want. It's written even in the book of our rights in the US.

Well if you can't work, why risk getting your visa revoked?

Got family and shouldn't your internship provide living expenses for you?

That company is dirt cheap, should be a clear sign you don't want to work their, but alas Italy has employment problems no so you take what you can get.

Congrats on the internship though. Any experience is valuable and hopefully it will lead to a full time job.

Oh and:

DONT GIVE OUT YOUR SSN RANDOMLY

I find it very weird that the intership pays at the end of the 3 months term-is it a legitimate company? I have never seend that.
