Is it possible for J2 dependents to work?

Dependents of J-2 may apply for work authorization from the USCIS as long as the job is not intended to support J-1 financially. On average, USCIS processing takes 3-5 months. It is not necessary for a J-2 employee to demonstrate evidence of special skills in order to obtain a work permit!
