[raincoat]

Hello everyone! I recently got back from india and have decieded to move there. I will be going in the end of december. I have job possiblities but my questions is what kind of visa to get and how i get it. I currently have a tourist visa, but i dont want ot go to a visit i actually want to stay. I read that i have to regester because im staying longer than 180 days but where od i do that? And can i get a employment visa without being employed yet? Any help/suggestions woulld be great! Thanks!

HI,
Assuming you are US citizen of Indian Origin, you may want to apply OCI /PIO card. Once you have the card, you should be okay (you might then have to apply for PAN card).
This is just my opinion. you may want to check with a lawyer/CA in India.
