Selling covered calls classified as passive income or active trading?


I have accrued some savings and stocks for a few companies over my 3 years on F1. I dont want to put more money in the market, but plan to sell Covered Calls (CCs) periodically once a month to generate passive income.
Would CCs be considered Day trading or active investment? I dedicate less than 5 min per month to this activity and no selling/trading of options at all.
Would it affect my status?
