Though may not be the right thing to do but I do see that happening and dont think it is illegal.

On the other hand from taxation purposes, the income in home country needs to be taxed in US as one would be considered resident alien for tax purposes.

This is my opinion not legal advice.

I did not get this "the income in home country needs to be taxed in US". What about already the tax payed in home country?

From a declaration point, a resident alien, for tax purposes, needs to declare ones global income in US. If you are looking at detail on this tax related information, would suggest talking to a Tax expert.
