Hello.
I am currently under STEM OPT extension in my first year in New York. I want to start a company here in the United States and before I head into it I was just wondering what my options were.
I am aware that under STEM OPT I am not able to do any kind of work other than the one I am allowed under the STEM contract.
But what if I want to start a company? I read that if an alien here in the US was able to create jobs full time job for 5 or more employees that they would get a green card. Would that option help me in any way?
Should I start the company in someone else's name that I trust ? and be like the co-founder or something>?
I really need advise with this. Please help.
