Hi everybody,
I'm a bit nervous about my case because I'm trying to qualify through work experience as an entrepreneur and CEO:
I run a bar/pool hall, which I bought 6 years ago from my employer and I have been officially an entrepreneur and CEO of my own company ever since. I currently employ 5 people and back in 2013 I also owned a small nightclub which I ran under the same company. I make a decent living as an entrepreneur and I would actually keep running the company in my home country even after moving to U.S. as my sister in-law works for me as a bar manager and would be able step up to be a COO to look after my business. So, I can honestly say that there wouldn't be a chance for me becoming a public charge in U.S. as I would still get regularly paid from my company even I wouldn't lift a finger for it.
I'm just worried about whether I would be qualified through work experience as a CEO or not? I do understand that one could form a company running a little hot dog cart and name him-/herself a CEO and get denied the DV visa, but in my honest opinion my case is a bit more legit than that.
I can get a recommendation letters from my previous employer(who sold his business to me), from my accounting company, from my main supplier(the biggest brewery in the country), from my business estate owning company, from another business estate owning company(which offered me a lease contract to one of their shopping malls) and I will of course print out a Trade Register extract for proofing that the company has been active for over 6 years and that I've been the sole owner and CEO the entire time.
Do you think I should add something else? What do you think my realistic chances are of getting approved a Green Card?
I would really appreciate good advises on this one and if anyone has taken a similar path and been granted a Green Card, I would be very grateful to read your story.
Have a nice weekend you all!
