You need to talk to some Angel/VCs as they face these set of issues of founders and may have answers the normal HN crowd may not..

Okay people that are approachable, I would say go local if there are VC/Angels in your geographical area.

It may be that one of the VC/Angels that you contact may be able to help you reach the $250k Startup Visa Act precondition.

Sorry that I do not have more in-depth answers.
