USA E2 Business Visa
Did you know that if you invest in an existing business
or a start up business in the USA you may have the potential to emigrate to the USA on
an E2 investment visa. The E2 Visa enables investors who are nationals of
certain countries
to purchase a business and live in the USA. The E2 visa allows investors
to apply for entry to the United States in order to invest in and manage
and coordinate the running of a business enterprise in the United
States.
In order to qualify for the E2 visa, you must be a citizen of a
nation that holds a treaty of trade and commerce with the USA – such as the
UK who is one of these nations. Thousands of UK citizens emigrate to the USA
(especially Florida) and one of the easiest and quickest ways to
emigrate to the USA is via the E2 visa.
How do I qualify?
The type of business purchased must meet a number of immigration rules that
regulate the following aspects:
- The nationality of the investor.
- The amount of the investment.
- The nature of the investment.
- The nature of the investment enterprise.
- The role that the investor will adopt in the
investment enterprise.
- The past, present and future viability of the
investment enterprise.
You must be a national of a country that maintains
treaties of navigation and commerce with the U.S. for E2 visa purposes.
Treaty countries currently include: Albania, Argentina, Armenia,
Australia, Austria, Azerbaijan, Bahrain, Bangladesh, Belgium, Bolivia,
Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Cameroon, Canada, Chile, China
(Taiwan), Colombia, Congo (Brazzaville), Congo (Kinshasa), Costa Rica,
Croatia, Czech Republic, Ecuador, Egypt, Estonia, Ethiopia, Finland,
France, Georgia, Germany, Grenada, Honduras, Iran, Ireland, Italy,
Jamaica, Japan, Jordan, Kazakhstan, South Korea, Kyrgyzstan, Latvia,
Liberia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Macedonia, Mexico, Moldova, Mongolia,
Morocco, the Netherlands, Norway, Oman, Pakistan, Panama, Paraguay,
Philippines, Poland, Romania, Senegal, Singapore, Slovak Republic,
Slovenia, Spain, Sri Lanka, Suriname, Sweden, Switzerland, Thailand,
Togo, Trinidad & Tobago, Tunisia, Turkey, Ukraine, United Kingdom, and
Yugoslavia.
The type of business that we are able to offer are
either existing franchise businesses or start-up franchise businesses
which specialise in either Wheelie Bin Cleaning Services,
or Mobile Dog Washing & Grooming Services.
Both types of business and franchise qualify for the E2 Visa, thereby
allowing the investor to apply for entry to the United States in order
to invest in, manage and run their business enterprise in the United
States.
However, if you have a criminal record or have had previous
immigration problems in the U.S., it is essential that you seek
competent legal advice before contemplating making a journey to
the United States, or applying live and work there on an E2
Business Visa.
The Visa?
Because the E2 visa is not subject to quotas, tens of thousands
of applicants per year have been able to successfully emigrate to
the U.S.A. on an E2 visa. To qualify for an E2 visa as an investor, it is not necessary to
have academic qualifications such as a degree or to be exceptionally
talented. Although an initial period of stay of two or five years is
granted to persons coming to the United States in the E category,
this period can be extended almost indefinitely as long as the
business is still operational. Overall, for persons who wish to live and work in the United
States as proprietors of their own business, the E2 visa can be an
excellent option.
Where will I live?
We always recommend that you buy the business first and think
about your residential property later, because it is ownership of
the business that will allow you to emigrate to the US. Once the
business has been bought, you can then think of buying or even
temporarily renting a property. Some businesses have on-site
accommodation where you can live. Once you are settled and the
business is running smoothly you should then think of buying a
property.
Why is it NOW a good time for me to emigrate to
the United States via a business visa?
Even with UK house prices having fallen and the US dollar being not so
cheap, this is still an ideal time for UK citizens to emigrate to the USA
via a business visa. In other words if you have substantial equity
in your home or have significant Pound Sterling currency, you can
convert that to a substantial amount of dollars and you will be able
to afford to buy a US business. If you feel that you might be interested in applying for an E2
visa and wish to find out more about how you might qualify, please

the matter with out team.

dreams. The types of franchise business available in all States are:
