Can I please run this logic past you all.

If we were to buy a business and go over on an E2 visa with only one of us as a director of the company and the other a dependant - then when we get there I assume the dependant can apply for a work visa?

Is this the case?

Then when in employment could this person then apply for a green card?

If this person then got a green card would the spouse (E2 visa holder) then be entitled to stay irrespective of business interests?

If the business was then sold - could the spouse apply for a work permit as the other half would have a green card?

Also can you tell me if children of green card holders are allowed to stay and apply for a green card themselves past school age.

Thanks

One question I can answer there is children under 21 get greencards when their parents get them......

I'm not sure.......but the work permit you get while in the US does not lead to a greencard........
