EB-5 you can do for $500k plus transactional costs and probably shouldn't go into the business anyway. E2 absolutely agree it just feels like deferring the problem to a later date. A lot of exposure for not as much in return. I think the bottom line is you don't need to be in the US as much as you needed to before, given your track record. Here the US should need/want you more than the other way round. L-1A is probably quite doable though and it's dual intent. You need to wait a year, but that may have passed already anyway. |

An L-1A is an option a year from now (I've only recently incorporated), but it's hard to build a sufficiently large company to satisfy the requirements to sponsor without putting down enough roots that it's no longer worthwhile moving.
I think you've nailed it though with:

It's just not worth it to go through the contortions and hassle required to stay and start a company in the US. In a connected economy I can get the full value of the education & networks I've picked up in the states from any first-world country, and create value there.
