Creating a Business in the US on an H1-B Visa?

Posted by Cliff on Monday February 12, 2007 @05:00PM from the building-the-american-dream dept.

GnaGnaGna asks: "I've lived in the US for almost a year now and have a full time position with a major American company under an H1-B visa (work visa for foreigners). Besides this job, I also run an increasingly popular website generating AdSense revenues. I am not sure if I am allowed to create a US company (most likely an LLC), under my legal status, and transfer the Adsense profits to my personal bank account or a business bank account. Have my fellow readers faced a similar legal situation or know anything about it?"

Cliff, please explain why this is a good "ask slashdot" question. This is obiously something that should be referred to a lawyer. It is hard to believe that this was the best question you had in the queue.
