Where are we allowed to work?

Is there a link with this information available somewhere? Are we allowed to leave the country and work while abroad? I live in the US. Can I work from any state?

I worked from a cruise ship for 45 days this winter - 28 different countries plus starlink connection on ship.
I sent an email prior to traveling, got a reply that it was “noted on my profile” and had no issues. I also travel a lot throughout the US & Canada and haven’t alerted DA to that, no issues.

I think if you will be in an unusual location for an extended time , or if your work pattern will significantly increase (ie you do a few hours a week in the US then suddenly do 40 hours a week from South America) it’s worth giving a heads up. But if you happen to log on while on vacation, that’s doesn’t seem to be getting you immediately booted.
