In this episode we answer H-2B visa costs, USCIS processing times and expediting USCIS visa applications, starting and/or buying a business when under 18, and how to balance basketball and school.

This is part of our weekly Quora Q&A series. If you have questions you wish for us to cover, then just leave it in the comments or connect with us on Quora.

Question 1: How much does it cost to apply for an H-2B visa?

Original Quora Thread: https://www.quora.com/unanswered/How-much-does-it-cost-to-apply-for-an-H-2B-visa

Answer: H-2B costs come in two flavors, those born by the employer and those born by the visa holder. In general, the employer will have to reimburse the applicant for all H-2B visa application costs, and the applicant should never pay someone a portion of their salary for "recruitment"

Question 2: Can I buy a business if I am under 18?

Original Quora Thread: https://www.quora.com/unanswered/Legally-speaking-if-Im-under-the-age-of-18-but-I-have-enough-money-to-buy-a-business-Can-I-buy-it-and-have-full-ownership-of-it-all-under-my-name

A: It depends on what you mean by this question. The issue you have is that other business people know that you can void a contract because of your minor status. There's more in the video.

Question 3: Has anyone had luck expediting or speeding up an I-130 visa application after presenting USCIS with a job offer and start date

Original Quora Thread: https://www.quora.com/Has-anyone-had-luck-expediting-an-I-130-visa-after-presenting-USCIS-with-a-job-offer-and-start-date

A: There are ways to expedite, but the reasons have to be compelling, and you should most often go through your congressman's office.

Question 4: I am considering playing college basketball but it is hard for me to focus and just get schoolwork done. Is it worth the experience or should I just focus on my academics?

Original Quora Thread: https://www.quora.com/I-am-considering-playing-college-basketball-but-it-is-hard-for-me-to-focus-and-get-schoolwork-done-Is-it-worth-the-experience-or-should-I-just-focus-on-my-academics

A: We sure think the experience is worth it. Trent played basketball, and he ended up having a JD and an MBA. College sports breed discipline if you commit to them.
