Experienced Investor Visas Attorneys In California, Utah, and Idaho

The Immigrant Investor Program or EB-5 program was created in 1990 to assist international business leaders with commercial opportunities, job creation and capital investment in the United States. Our law firm represents these business leaders. Our clients typically invest in new commercial enterprises ranging from sole proprietorships to partnerships, corporations and business trusts.

Our attorneys have the experience and knowledge required to guide clients through the EB-5 investment visa process, including:

  • Representing individual investors
  • Providing comprehensive services, from preparing an application to the eventual completion of the EB-5 process
  • Advising clients to fully understand their choices and make educated decisions

The E-2 nonimmigrant classification, meanwhile, is a nonimmigrant visa for individuals from specific countries who invest heavily in U.S. business. This visa allows admission to a national from a treaty country who invests a substantial amount of capital, as well as the national’s employees if eligible. E-2 classification qualifications for these treaty investors include:

  • Status as a national of a country with which the U.S. maintains a treaty of navigation and commerce
  • Past or present investment of a substantial amount of capital in a bona fide enterprise
  • Desire to enter the country for purposes of development and direction of the investment enterprise, with at least 50 percent ownership, operational control or managerial position with the enterprise
