Dallas and Fort Worth, Investment/E-1/E-2 Visa Lawyers
Investment visas, also known as E visas, are visas that allow investors and businesspeople to live and conduct business in the United States for a long-term period. Investment visas fall under two categories:
- E-1 visas enable foreign nationals to live in the U.S. and conduct trade between the U.S. and the treaty country.
- E-2 visas allow foreign nationals to direct and develop a business enterprise in which they have invested or are in the process of investing.
Investment visas are available to citizens of countries with which the United States has a qualifying treaty of commerce or an equivalent agreement, and generally last two years with, often unlimited extensions.
If you are interested in pursuing an investment visa, the visa and immigration law firm of Chavez & Valko can help. From our offices in Dallas and Fort Worth, we have helped people from dozens of nations obtain investment visas and extensions.
