Are there any searchers on a non-immigrant visa (H-1B / L-1) actively pursuing acquisitions in the US? I'd love to connect. A few things I'm curious about: • Given the legal restrictions around active business ownership, are you structuring your involvement as passive or active? • How are you handling the entity and ownership structure to stay compliant? • What contingency planning have you done around the investment if you had to leave the US? • How are you approaching capital raises: are lenders generally comfortable with the visa overhang risk? For context: One of my investor is H-1B holder and navigating these exact questions in real time. Drop a comment or DM me happy to share what I've learned and hear how others are working through it.
