Hi, I'm in a similar situation. I live in Europe and plan to move to the bay area after earning my bachelor degree here in Brussels.
I know some of the implications of moving to America, but I am wondering if the following situation could make things easier for me.
I have co-founded a non-profit organization (incorporated in NY) with my partner (who's living on a student visa himself at the moment). We also got our own web development & consultancy company (though not officially registered as a company yet), and I would like to work independently with my partner when I move to the bay area.
Do you think the companies we have founded could provide us with a work visa?
