Common questions
How much do I need to invest?
There is no legal minimum for the E-2 — the investment must be substantial for the business. Immigration attorneys commonly say around $100,000 is a practical starting point. EB-5 requires $800,000 in a targeted employment area, or $1,050,000 elsewhere.
Does my country qualify for the E-2?
The E-2 is open to citizens of countries with a qualifying U.S. treaty — many in Latin America, Europe and Asia, such as Mexico, Colombia, Argentina and Spain. Some, like Brazil, don't qualify. We check your case in the first call.
Does buying a business guarantee my visa?
No. Buying a franchise or business is only one part of the application. Every E-2 or EB-5 case is reviewed by U.S. government officials, who decide whether to approve it.
Are you immigration lawyers?
No. We are business and franchise consultants. Your visa is prepared and filed by an independent licensed immigration attorney, and we coordinate with them.
