How much investment is needed for an E-2 small-business investor visa?
I’d like to know roughly how much investment is needed for an E-2 small-business investor visa. I’m planning to move to the U.S. mainly for my children’s education.
I’ve heard around $300,000 is needed — I’d like to know if that’s accurate.
It depends on the industry and the nature of the business. In some cases, under $100,000 is sufficient, while other types of businesses may require $500,000 or more in investment. There’s no specific rule dictating a required investment amount, since it depends on the scale and nature of the particular business — so consulting with an attorney is necessary.
