She works like 60 hours a week at a Subway and says she does not get overtime pay. The law here states that any hours over 40 are required to be paid time and a half. Is she s=working illegally? I thought on a Student visa you could only work for the school? shes off tuesdays, most days shes gone from 8a-11p. she stays up real late at night, i swear she sleeps only four hours a night

She is working illegally. She could work on campus but could not work off campus without special authorization and even then no more than 20 hours per week while school is in session.
2 :
how does anyone go to school and works 60 hours per week ? that would be like 10 hours daily with an off day , don't think its possible so maybe your calculations are a bit wrong , and yes as an student you are suppose to work limited hours , either way im not sure whats the deal ? people say there is not enough work places for them and then there is people who have two jobs . edit : ok so does she even go to school ? worst thing i can see in your question is the fact than she isn't being paid over time ... btw i have met at least a person who used to do the same but not at school , i believe he had three jobs .
3 :
If she is working off-campus, she is working illegally, and if she is working full-time, she is probably not going to school, which means her student visa may have been cancelled and she may be out of status and deportable. Lots of foreign students come here with F-1 visas, quit when they run out of money, and then start working illegally while trying to figure out how to get a green card, usually by marrying a US citizen.
4 :
She is in BIG trouble. Student and working visas are two different things. One cannot do whatever they want when they are in the US on a student visa. Even though it is summer vacation, she is being taken advantage of with all those hours and no OT. Her employer is typically an idiot running a fast food joint. In ALL states, not asking to see her Soc. Sec. Card is a federal & State violation. This employer is using her, paying slave wages and Off the books & against the law. That Subway should be put out of business. You should report the Subway. It might save other desperate girls who are able to be manipulated by employers.
5 :
Yes,she is working illegally. She can only work part time on campus while on a student visa. When she gets caught,she will lose her student visa.
6 :
I always read that Subway uses E-Verify, this just proves how worthless E-Verify really is. If she's not getting payed over time, most likely her employers are aware that she's not allowed to work outside of the campus and use this as an advantage to save some bucks on labor. She needs to find an on-campus job before she gets caught.

From India, refused UK student visa twice, chances for Canada?
From India, refused UK student visa twice, chances for Canada?
Hey guys, I'll try and be very concise here. I went to the UK in 2002 with family who kept on applying & getting refused from UK Embassy in 2-3 applications made within UK. During the course of time, I was studying and started pursuing a medical degree (MBBS) in UK in 2005. The university accepted me as a home student since I was studying there for three years. Family came back to India in 2006, and me getting fed up with my situation there (no rights, probability of detention) came back in 2008, hoping I would be granted a student visa. Applied 1st in Aug 2008 and they refused on the basis of "inadequate funds", then in Jan 2009 they termed my overstaying and some weirdly minor application that I couldn't recollect at all on the form as the reason for refusal and they have barred future applications till 2018 + accusing me of fraud against my uni for paying Home fees for 3 years when I had no business to. Now, my family is keen I should give Canada a try. I am fine either ways - studying in India or abroad. I want to know how much does my UK history affect my Canadian application. Will downplaying the situation help? Obviously to enter the Canadian medical education system, I would need to do a BSc first, but is this possible now-as in does the UK immigration history have the potential to really make the whole process of applying unnecessary? Am really desperate, really keen to do medicine and would love to hear some opinions, as to how I should proceed. Sincere thanks to everyone who contributed. Freebird mate, thanks for putting things so eloquently. I am at a decision-making phase and a voice of reason like yours is extremely helpful. At the time of admission, the moment the uni saw I was studying for 3 years, they just gave the offer as a Home student. I even categorically called them and told them of the oversight but was told it was an admin oversight, the offer letter being legally binding and in the face of my financial circumstances then, who were sustaining on bare minimum given their pending status made me grasp the opportunity. Hanora, totally with you mate. I have been seriously considering Indian universities as an option, since have already wasted about 6 months in the three applications I've made. Parents are still keen for me to go abroad, partly because dad feels guilty that his immigration decisions have had such repercussions and they are actively wondering whether I'll adjust to the Indian way of academics. S and maliving...: Guys, calm down! Negative much!? Do you guys know in what conditions people in immigration limbo sustain? I guess not, that's why you can sit on your moral high horse and spit judgements. From my 7 years in UK, yes 3 of which I paid home student fees, but 4 of which I was paying through my nose, and I used to work my ass off in community health projects taking care of the same above 50 year olds whose lack of pension you so conveniently blame on immigrants. What do you read for breakfast-The Daily Mail? If you can't contribute constructively, please keep your generalisations for coffee-table conversations to impress your mates, not at people posting on public forums in difficult situations.

You were guilty of fraud when you paid home fees at Uni in the UK. You didn't give them the information they needed or you would have been charged international fees. Canada may consider your application but if they share information with the UK you are likely to be refused there too. You can't hide your UK history so if you apply for any other country you are taking a risk. What you call downplaying is nothing short of lying. Countries check visa applicants carefully and lies on your application, either get you no visa, or if discovered later get you deported and banned. That's what happens when you cheat the system. Your history will cause you problems with any type of visa you apply for to any country. You should plan for a long term future in India.
2 :
Why not study in India. Doctors there are well regarded and I suspect that medical travel will only increase and there will be more business for India, Korean, etc. doctors from US patients. You can't hide your UK track record from Canada and they will take it into account.
3 :
Why don't you stay in India rather than leeching from other countries. I am very glad to hear that you were rejected from the UK. EDIT: "If you can't contribute constructively, please keep your generalisations for coffee-table conversations to impress your mates, not at people posting on public forums in difficult situations." I'm not trying to impress anyone.I don't care who you are, if you're not British then i'd like you to stay the hell of out my country. I know BRITISH people, with Medicine degrees that can't get jobs because foreigners come in and undercut them, working for less wages. Stay in India.

I am sick of people taking financial advantage of this countries nicety. Have you ever thought of paying back to the UK what you have taken out. Pensioners are in a dire state in this country as they are treated less than third world nationals. The country has no money for us after working more than 50 years paying taxes on our earnings. It seems it has plenty to offer those that have not paid a penny in. Finished reading the Bombay Times have you and I dont read the Daily Mail to find out the devastation which is happening in front of everyones eyes in my country. Don' pretend you can't see it either. Is your country being overun by many chancers?
