Visa for investors
Find out how to get a visa to INVEST IN THE UNITED STATES
Trader and Investor visas offer natives of countries that are party to the US Trade Treaty the opportunity to work, direct, and control a business they have established in the United States.
This is a temporary or non-immigrant visa and the Merchant or Investor may renew their visa for an extended period while the company is in operation.
Due to a recent change in the law, the spouses of a Merchant or Investor can obtain a work permit as long as the “principal beneficiary” retains his status. An E-2 visa requires an average investment of $100,000 to $150,000. An immigrant investor, and under the EB-5 (Green Card) investor category, must make an investment of at least US$500,000 in a new business, which should generate at least 10 new full-time jobs.
Another option for investors is category L-1 visa. However, it is only after a detailed analysis of the situation and the specific case that it will be possible to determine with certainty which Investor visa category the client fits into.
This review should be performed by an experienced immigration attorney.

Unmarried children under the age of 21 are also able to accompany the bride.
A bride visa requires the wedding to take place in the United States.
The bride has 6 months to travel to the United States and thus use her K1 visa.
