E2 Visa Lawyer

Business immigration lawyer Bomkapr Kanu helps treaty investors navigate the visa application process and start businesses in the United States.

Helping Investors Start Businesses in the U.S.

Are you an investor looking to live and work in the U.S. by investing in a U.S. business? If so, the E-2 investor category of visas in the U.S. could be your answer–this visa category allows foreign nationals from a treaty country to establish and manage a commercial enterprise in the U.S. In other words, the E-2 visa can be an avenue for foreign investors to create and run a business in the U.S., and obtain a visa while doing it.

When applying for the E-2 investor category, a business immigration attorney can help ensure a smooth process for your E-2 visa application. Our attorney Bomkapr (”Bom”) Kanu can help investors meet their application requirements, including investment structuring, document preparation, and consular processing at a U.S. embassy or consulate.

Understanding the E-2 Visa

Understanding who qualifies for the E-2 visa is an important step towards obtaining one. This visa is available to foreign nationals from countries that have what’s called a “treaty of commerce” with the U.S. To qualify to apply for this visa, an applicant must:

Be a citizen of a treaty country, which is a nation that has a treaty (or similar agreement) with the U.S.
Make a substantial investment in a business in the United States
Have at least 50% ownership or operational control
Engage in the operation of the enterprise to ensure economic contribution

As a business immigration lawyer, Bom can help assess whether your investment meets these visa application requirements.
