FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

The minimum investment amount varies depending on the specific investor visa program. For example, the EB-5 Immigrant Investor Program generally requires a minimum investment of $1.8 million in a new commercial enterprise or $900,000 if the investment is in a targeted employment area (TEA). The E-2 Treaty Investor Visa program does not have a specific minimum investment amount, but it generally requires a substantial and irrevocable investment.
Some investor visas, such as the EB-5 Immigrant Investor Program, can lead to lawful permanent residency in the U.S. Others, like the E-2 Treaty Investor Visa, do not directly lead to permanent residency but can be renewed indefinitely as long as the investor meets the visa requirements.
The type of business you can invest in may vary depending on the specific investor visa program. In many cases, the business must be a new commercial enterprise or fit certain criteria related to job creation and economic impact. There may be restrictions or preferences based on the program’s requirements.
Some investor visas, like the EB-5 program, have job creation requirements. The number of jobs and the timeframe for job creation vary by program. Job creation is typically verified through documentation provided by the investor and the business, such as payroll records, I-9 forms, and business financial records. Regional centers, if applicable, may also assist in job creation verification for EB-5 investors.
Creating a well-structured business plan is a crucial step when applying for an investor visa in the U.S. A comprehensive and compelling business plan will help demonstrate to immigration authorities that your investment is viable, will create jobs, and aligns with the goals of the specific visa program you are applying for. When preparing a business plan, you’ll generally want to consider the following: visa program requirements, executive summary, business description, market analysis, management and ownership structure, investment details, financial projections, job creation plan, legal and regulatory compliance, and risk assessment. Our qualified legal team can assist you in reviewing and/or preparing the business plan on your behalf.
