Hi Peter, what does a prospective founder on h1 need to know about starting up with YC? I’m really interested in becoming a founder however i currently work a full time job so not sure how much time I can legally dedicate based on h1. I also worry about the job safety aspect especially given my h1 (i do have an approved I140 if that matters). What would be the path to more flexibility that you have seen founders take?
