E-2 Investment Visa Services
Build Your American Business Dream with Strategic Legal Guidance
The E-2 visa allows foreign nationals from treaty countries to live and work in the United States by investing in and directing the operations of a U.S.-based business. Whether launching a new enterprise or acquiring an existing company, KW Immigration Law PC provides skilled, customized support for investors seeking to grow their presence in the U.S. economy.
Who Qualifies for an E-2 Visa?
- Citizens of a country that maintains a treaty of commerce and navigation with the United States
- Must invest a substantial amount of capital in a real and operating U.S. business
- Must be entering the U.S. to develop and direct the enterprise
- Business must generate more than just minimal living income (marginality test)
Our E-2 Visa Legal Services Include:
- Business plan development in collaboration with investment advisors and CPAs
- Preparation and filing of Form DS-160 and supporting documents
- Legal structuring of business formation and capital transfer documentation
- Liaising with U.S. consulates for visa interviews and renewals
- Assistance with E-2 employee visas (essential workers, executives, or specialists)
Important Considerations:
- There is no minimum investment set by law, but the amount must be proportionate to the nature of the business
- E-2 visas can be renewed indefinitely if the business continues to meet eligibility requirements
- Spouses of E-2 visa holders may apply for work authorization in the U.S.
- E-2 status does not lead directly to a Green Card but can be part of a broader immigration strategy
Tips for a Strong E-2 Visa Application:
- Prepare a thorough five-year business plan showing viability and job creation
- Show clear traceability of investment funds and legal transfer into the U.S.
- Be prepared for consular scrutiny of your role in directing the company
- Consider long-term immigration goals and potential transition to permanent residency
