Hi Peter, Should a person who is in H1B wants to create a startup in US, what kind of VISA issues that he/she might run into?
- chrisseaton 8y agoWhy do some people capitalise ‘visa’? What are you under the impression it stands for?
- orsenthil 8y agochrisseaton, I don't get your question. Imagine a person while working for company has motivation to start a company. The option is move back to country of origin or to a different country or stay in US. My question was about staying in US and starting the company.
- chrisseaton 8y agoI was asking why you wrote ‘visa’ in capital letters. It’s just a normal word. It’s not an abbreviation.
- ben509 8y agoThe all caps Visa logo on credit cards is probably where it comes from. But, yeah, travel "visa" is a common noun.
- proberts 8y agoGenerally, an H-1B through the startup won't work so you have to look at other visa options and oftentimes, under current law, this is limited to an O-1 or E-2 if the founder is a citizen of a country that gives rise to an E-2.
