An LLC on a student F1 visa

Hi everyone,

I am an international Egyptian student on an F1 visa. I just started my IT offshore outsourcing services business as an LLC. From my knowledge, technically from an immigration perspective, I should not be working on the US, which is the case. Most of the business operations are done by other people offshore. And from an IRS perspective, I should not pay taxes since it is not a US trader business since the services are performed offshore.

Meanwhile, I have a SSN and part-time campus job. I watched a video of James talking how is it a complicated for a foreign LLC owned by a student in the US since it will be a trader business by somehow. Quite did not understand it. How would me being the owner of the LLC a student in the US make it a US trader business ?

Correct me if I am wrong, I cant get an ITIN since I already have a SSN.

How would it work out separating paying taxes for my part-time student employment and not paying so for my LLC offshore-operated earned income?
