My reply will address basically the question of how much of a risk taker do you want to be ?.

Of course, any type of work, whether you are paid or not for it, in China is conmsider "WORK", and you must have a "Z" type work visa, a work permit, a residence permit, a health certificate and a few other things. 

On a "spouse" type visa, it is a No-No.  Will you be caught ?.  Eventually you will, and that is when the crap will hit the fan, because it will be consider EXTREMELY DISRESPECTULLY to Chinese Officials that you did as you pleased, and not as you are told.  Places of employment are check on a random basis for illegals working there.

And if caught, the "Spouse" will be deported, her or his visa cancelled, aqnd banned from entering China for a few years or maybe forever.  And if severe enough, not only the Spouse, but the whole family may be told that you have 10 days to leave China, no appeals, no recourse.

Now, for the few extra Rmb per month, is it worth the risk to you ?

A: "... through ..."?  Only "through" comes to mind is "Shenzhen agent can connect you with an employer, who's authorized to hire waigouren ... and can sponsor Z visa." It's not like every 10th person you meet in Shenzhen's hood can sponsor work visa ...  The only way to change from student to labourer visa is just a regular way by: 1. Finding an employer, who'll apply for an Invitation letter; 2. Exit China and apply for Z visa in your home country's Chinese embassy; 3. Enter China in 30-days after Z visa was stamped into your travelling instrument ...As I am aware, you won't be able to switch to Working permit by remaining in China....,so make ready for a return to your home .... -- icnif77
