throwawayeb2··on Process for a Person on H1B to Startup
How does 13. lead to 14.? What is the birth country of the person? Remember there is 10-15 year wait for people born in India ( few years shorter if you are born in china) to obtain a Green Card in EB2 and EB3 category.

Depending on various factors the time between 13. and 14. could very well be between 3 to 20 years (15 years to obtain GC and 5 years after that to obtain citizenship).

throwawayeb2··on I'm Peter Roberts, immigration attorney who does work for YC and startups. AMA
Hi Peter, I am currently on EAD/AP (Country of Chargeability: India, EB2, dependent applicant) awaiting AOS. It seems it will take another 4 to 5 years for my PD to be current and visa numbers to be available.

I have a startup and we have couple of paying clients. If we decide to setup a India office it is possible to transfer myself to the india subsidiary and get myself transfer back on Eb1 (Multi national executive).
