USA Investor Visas

By Sam McDougall Turner

Citizenship in the USA is a dream of many millions of people all over the world and despite the huge number of people who are granted citizenship every year, there is still a waiting list that will take around a decade to clear, and the applications keep coming in thick and fast.

The main reason that America is such a desirable place to live is because of the reputation it has built up over the last century or so; the land of opportunity and dreams. There are people all over the world who would give their right arms to be able to move to America and start up a business there.

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.

E1 and E2 US visas are granted to people from countries that have a treaty with the USA to trade and provide services. Most of the countries in Europe are a part of the treaty, as are most South American countries " excepting Brazil, Cuba, Guatemala and Ecuador. Several countries from Asia, Central America, the Middle East, and Africa are also a part of this treaty.

The E5 visa is referred to as the investor visa for America and as you can most likely guess from the name, it is for those who wish to invest money in the USA. The threshold amount to qualify for this visa is different in some states to others; however it is usually around $500,000. Some states require that you stay around and look after the day to day operations of the business you invested in, but not all of them. - 23200
