Getting An Investor Visa For The USA

By Sam McDougall Turner

Becoming a US citizen is the dream of many millions of people all over the world and even though there are a huge number of people who are granted citizenship every year, the waiting list is still so vast that it will take over ten years to clear and the applications keep on coming.

One of the primary reasons why there is such a demand for US visas (and later on for immigration) is because of the sobriquet America has earned " of being the land of opportunity. People from all corners of the globe harbor a desire of getting into this land and starting a business.

However, something not too many people are aware of is that there is a visa created solely for people who are looking to invest within the USA, and if you are eligible for one, getting hold of one is a whole lot easier than it is to get hold of any other kind.

There are two main ways of obtaining an investor visa for the US.

The E1 and E2 investor visas are granted to those people who reside in countries that have a treaty with the USA to provide services and trade. Most countries in Europe are part a part of this treaty as well most South American countries apart from Brazil, Cuba, Guatemala and Ecuador. There are also several countries in Asia, Africa and the Middle East.

The E5is known as the investor visa for the USA, and as you can probably guess, is it given to people who want to invest money in the USA. The threshold amount you need to invest to qualify varies from state to state, however it is usually around $500,000. In some states, it is required that the investor stays onto oversee the day to day operations of the business they have invested in, but not in all of them. - 23212
