I’m on D-2 (student) and thinking about weekend work.
Is part-time allowed? Any experience?

First of all you need an offer letter with a date of offer not date of joining. After that you can make an appointment reservation and download the permission letter form from immigration website. Undergraduate students need to get permission letter signed from their university. The graduate student need to get permission letter sigend by their supervisor. Visit the immigration office with job offer letter and permission letter on reservation date and you are good to go. Make sure the part time job falls under permitted categories. May be post another question for that. Good luck.
Correct 👍 we’re preparing a simple guide for student visa part-time rules.
Yes but you need permission from immigration first.
