E-2 Treaty Investor Business Visa Application - Paperback

by Brian D. Lerner (Author)

Are you an entrepreneur? Want to come to the United States to start your own business and/or to buy a business in operation already? Don't have the $1,000,000 required for the EB-5? Well, the E-2 Treaty Investor Visa will require only about $100,000 investment and you can come to the U.S. to pursue your dreams.In fact, depending on the type of business, you might be able to invest only $50,000US. If you come from a country with a higher conversion ratio, then it is even less for you. Also, if you have equipment or products already, that can be used as part of the investment. For example, if you are starting a photography company and have $20,000 worth of cameras, you can use that as part of the investment. Another example, would be if you are going to start a trucking delivery service and you already own a truck worth $60,000, that would nearly satisfy the entire investment.

Assuming you are from a treaty country, this sample E-2 Treaty Investor Visa Petition gives you everything you need to get the best chance of approval. It includes all relevant exhibits, forms, cover letter, business plan and supporting evidence. It has been prepared by an expert Immigration Attorney. Thus, this book will allow you to see a guide of how it is done, prepared and submitted. E-2's are great visas, but difficult to prepare. This is the next best thing to having an attorney prepare your petition.

Do you currently have your own business in your home country? Do you want to open a business in the United States? Do you have funds to invest in your own business? Do you have around $100,000 to move forward with an investment in a currently operating business or one that you will make from scratch? Do you want to come to the United States on a work / investment type visa. The E-2 Investors Visa might be the best option for you. It will differ from the E-1 in that this is an investment visa, while the E-1 is a trading visa. Thus, the actual 'investment' needed for the E-2 is a very important factor and needs to be around $100,000. However, not all of that has to go specifically into the business. Some can be used as capital to make the business run, prepaid rent, and expenses that you already used to get the business running. This is a great way to be able to come to the United States and continue with your business and travel back and forth without a problem.

In order to initially even be considered for this type of visa, you will need to make sure that there is an E-2 Investment Visa treaty with the United States. While there are several requirements and this type of visa with its petition will try to show all those requirements, you cannot even begin if you are not a citizen of the country which the United States has a treaty.

While it would be better and more effective to use an experienced attorney, it is clear that many times people just do not have the funds to retain an attorney. Therefore, note that this E-2 Treaty Investor Petition is made by an experienced immigration lawyer with nearly 30 years of experience. It is real and it was actually submitted.

We certainly hope you find this petition useful and helpful and hope for the best immigration experience you can have. We do have petitions on every subject area of immigration, and you might look at those if needed as well. If you do need to actually have a consultation, you can call our U.S. Immigration Law office at 562-495-0554 for an initial free consultation to determine what must be done to help you and your family.
