Visa Roadblocks

I've just come out of a meeting with an RE agent and I came away with some interesting information. First off, I need to look into the RE licensing criteria here to see if I qualify as I am (or will soon be) on an L-2 (non-immigrant) visa (i.e. NOT a green card or resident). My visa type might disqualify me from obtaining the RE license altogether despite the fact that an L-2 visa holder can legally work and/or study in the US (I'll have a SSN, bank accounts etc etc). This could also be a road-block to investing in the US but I'm setting up a meeting with a lender to discuss my options. I've just been bit by the RE bug and it would be a shame to have to squash that now! Any thoughts, please do share.
