Ask HN: join YC for a non-US resident
3 comments
I think that to get a real answer you're going to at least have to tell the people looking at this where you are from, that will make a huge difference in how hard it will be to get you to the USA.
I found this in the HN/YC FAQ (linked at the bottom of the page):
Do we have to be US citizens?
No, as long as you can get here for at least three months. We've funded several startups founded by non-citizens.

You'll probably have to go on tourist visa first, if you can.
Or student - if you are
The problem is "I'm not a US resident"; YC doesn't help in issuing VISA to US and suggest to ask other members, so here i ask! Are you an YC startup founder not from the US, how did you do to get VISA?
Also I'm 18 years old (but in January I'll be 19); so does that matter a lot.
+ is finding a partner hard? (currently I'm alone)
sorry for "lot of questions" but I don't know whom to ask, if you are that kind of people that want to talk a lot about their experiences why not add me ([email protected]) and talk about it
