A: You can incorporate or open an LLC with the Secretary of State. You get a business license in the city where you want to establish your business. You apply for an E2 visa to run the business investment. Contact an immigration attorney directly as this is a public forum.

A: Certainly, Naeem. To register your IT company in the U.S., you'll first need to choose a state for incorporation. Different states have varying benefits and requirements. Once chosen, you'll file Articles of Incorporation (or a similar document) with the Secretary of State in that state. You'll also need an Employer Identification Number (EIN) from the IRS for tax purposes.

If seeking investment, consider structuring your company in a way that's attractive to investors, possibly as a Corporation or an LLC. Additionally, there are specific visa options for business owners and investors, such as the E-2 or L-1 visa. Consulting with both an immigration and a corporate attorney would be advisable to ensure you're making informed decisions.
