- goatforce5 16y agoAustralians should take special interest in the E3 visa: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/E-3_visa http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/E-3_visa I can imagine that incorporating a company in the US and then having that company sponsor you would be a valid use of the E3. Once the company has an LCA to prove a US resident can't do your job (requires some hoop jumping and waiting around), it's super easy to get the E3. For a really young/small company you'd probably need to go to some effort to prove that the company isn't simply a vehicle to get the visa for a foreigner. I had an E3 and left of my own volition without applying for an extension. I tend to get a couple of minutes of extra questioning when going in to/transiting the US now, based on their assumption that I obviously want to return to live/work there, having experienced their awesomeness in the past. I know another person in exactly the same situation. (edit: changed LMO -> LCA. I was confusing Canadian and US terminology)
- neurotech1 16y agoFrom what I understand, you can't self-sponsor your visa as a single founder. eg. You would still need a US co-founder. E1 or E2 may be a better visa to use if you don't have a co-founder.
