E-2 Investor Visas

Forming the correct U.S. entity to support your immigration goals.
Thorough tracing and documentation of your investment capital.
Is there an exact minimum amount required to invest?
The law does not define a minimum. The investment must be 'substantial' relative to the total cost of the business. We generally recommend evaluating projects starting at $80,000 - $100,000 USD.
Does the E-2 visa lead directly to a Green Card?
Not directly; it is a nonimmigrant visa. However, it can be renewed indefinitely as long as the business continues to operate successfully.
