5/ L-2 spouses can work incident to status, and L-1A holders often move to an EB-1C green card without labour certification. Full guide:

1/ The L-1 visa is how multinational companies move existing staff to a US office — no lottery, no annual cap. Here’s how it works in 2026 🧵

4/ Fees changed on 9 Sep 2026: covered employers now pay the $4,500 9-11 fee on every L-1 petition, including same-employer extensions. The $100,000 H-1B payment does not apply to L-1.

7/ Teams of up to three can share one business plan. Each approved founder uses one of the 75 places.

And nobody publishes how many places are left. You cannot know from the outside how much room there is when you submit.

Denmark’s startup visa asks for no minimum investment, no capital threshold and no turnover target.
It also grants a maximum of 75 permits a year.

Most guides to the scheme mention the first three things and not the fourth. 🧵

6/ The part people miss is the extension.

After two years you can extend in blocks of up to three — but the expert panel evaluates your company again. A business that never moved past its approved plan is exposed at that point.

5/ Meanwhile: Quebec's streams are unaffected, Express Entry and the provincial business streams are open, and about twenty countries still run a founder route.

1/ Canada's Start-Up Visa closed to new applicants this year. IRCC said a replacement entrepreneur pilot was coming in 2026.

It is September. Nothing has been published — no criteria, no cap, no opening date.

4/ The one hard number is in the Levels Plan.

Federal Business admissions: 500/yr for 2026–28, against 1,000 for 2026 under the previous plan. Halved.

Caveat: that line covers Start-Up Visa and Self-Employed admissions together. It is not the pilot's size.

1/ Is US dual citizenship legal? Yes, and it has been secure since the Supreme Court's 1967 Afroyim v. Rusk ruling. But there's a bill that would end it, a passport rule that catches people out, and a tax rule that never changes. A thread.

5/ The travel rule: US citizens must enter and leave the US on a US passport, even with a second one. The tax rule: worldwide income stays US-taxable, and foreign accounts over $10,000 in aggregate need an FBAR.
