WHAT IS

an E-2 business plan?

Many of the most innovative companies in the United States were started by immigrants. In fact, one of the pillars on which the US economy stands is held strong by investors from outside. That is the reason why the US government has created special visas just for immigrant investors. Immigration by investment has also become one of the most popular means of settling in the country. However, to qualify for this kind of visa, applicants must meet strict documentation requirements, as defined by the US Citizenship and Immigration Services. The business plan needs to provide all the information that an immigration officer needs to make a decision as to whether the foreign investor should be granted immigration or not.
