Hi Peter, thanks SO much for doing this
- Is it ok to form a side company while on H1B?
- Is it ok for me to develop free or paid apps through my own side company (just me doing everything, without hiring anyone else)? If not, what do I need to do to not violate my status?
- What are the minimum criteria for an O visa and is that a viable solution if the side company is going really well?
- proberts 11y agoAll work must be authorized, so work for a side company must be work authorized, although it's possible to hold both full-time and part-time H-1Bs or O-1 or TNs with multiple companies. The criteria for O-1 classification are listed on USCIS's web site - too much to note here - but as a general rule, if a company is doing well, then it's relatively easy to get an O-1.
