Does the alien entrepreneur have to start a business from scratch or buy an existing business?
You can establish a new enterprise from scratch, or purchase an existing business that is simultaneously restructured resulting in a new business, or a troubled business (one that has lost 20% or more of its net worth in the past two years), or expand an existing business by at least 40% in numbers of employees or net worth (provided that minimum investment amount and minimum job creation threshold is met).
