Hey Guys,

I am in H1b and wanted to start a company. Read that I should have a GC or US Citizen to run the business. My question is

(1) Can I register the company under my name (I am in h1b). Will that affect my GC processing or is it illegal?

(2) I understand that I cannot work for that company. I have a GC friend who will be managing the company.

Please let me know.

Regards

(2) I understand that I cannot work for that company. You can, if you have H1 on that company. I have a GC friend who will be managing the company. that works
Please let me know.
