Re: incorporating as a resident alien

It's not quite clear from your question how the landlord could reach your assets by suing your partner, unless the landlord is suing the partnership (for example, for breach of a tenancy agreement or for damages to the premises) and the assets you are talking about are partnership assets, not your own individual assets. However, to answer your questions, a resident alien can incorporate. Assuming you truly have a partnership (some people use the term loosely), in order to protect whatever assets you have in the partnership, you will want to take steps to formally dissolve and wind down the affairs of the partnership, and at the same time, you could form a separate corporation. Any good corporate attorney can help you. Feel free to contact me and I can refer you to someone in your geographic area.
