no this is not a good step!!the only way you can get gc through gas station is through investment visa and for that you need to atleast invest $500000 and create employment for 10 person and yes dont even imagine of filing a H1 through gas station they will flatly deny you ,,,

yes you are right my friend but i dont mean to file h1 the next day i buy a gas station. i mean it takes at least 2 to 3 years for the business worth to be filed for a gc.in that time period i can make the business worth $500000 and fulfill the rest of the requirements. does this sound good? and u said "dont even imagine of filing a H1 through gas station they will flatly deny you ,," what does that mean?

investment has to be a one time investment worth $500000 at least...you cant take 2,3 years to make it worth $500000 .......if you have $500000 cash its lotta better to go to nepal and put the money in savings which will yield a 12%interest bro..........then to invest here in gas station .......you cant have your H1 through gas station until and unless its a corporation comprising of 3,4 gas station ..........

 Hotrod, I'm definitely interested. How're you trying to bring money? Hundi? Where are you?

@Hotrod:  You are investing  a huge sum of money and you said your partner is a F1 status too?Is that even possible ? Two F1 status starting  a business.... Secondly, Make sure if you have third party with a GC/Citizen,he  doesn't mesh you or your partner in any case,written and notarized paper needed! Yes, I think its  a viable option but  gonna take some $$$$,patience and time brother! Once you buy it inform us may be som eof us can buy some beer from your store....

Do not; you will not be able to get tabc liscense, lottery and food stamp to name the few.

I think one needs to have a PR or is a US citizen or have a work permit in order to do a business. And there's no way you guys can trust anybody for that sum money. Even if u guys trust, I suggest u guys not to, Keep in your mind "We're in America."
