I can't comment on that but the issue here is what constitutes work and actively participating in YC doesn't even if this participation results in benefit to a company.

Participating in YC isn't work? Isn't it a startup accelerator for teams to grow their business? Isn't growing one's business work?

  • Work in the context of immigration means participating in the local economy. A person visiting SF to attend YC is not working for a U.S. company, they are not participating in the local economy, they’re on a business trip conducting business.
