Why E-2 cases are won or lost in the details

The E-2 visa is our craft.

There is no fixed minimum investment and no single template. E-2 cases turn on how well three things are built and evidenced — the work we do every day.

Substantial Investment

The right amount, proven

What counts as “substantial” depends on your business, not a magic number. We value it correctly and document that the capital is committed and at risk.

Business Plan

A plan that holds up

A credible five-year plan showing the business is real, viable, and more than marginal — the backbone of an approvable petition.

Source of Funds

A clean money trail

A traceable path from earned to invested. Where your money came from can matter as much as how much it is. We build that trail before you file.

Common Questions

What investors ask before they begin.

How much do I need to invest for an E-2 visa?

There is no fixed statutory minimum. The investment must be “substantial” relative to the cost of the business and sufficient to make it operational. Many successful E-2 cases involve investments starting in the low-to-mid six figures, but the right number depends on your specific business.

What is an E-2 treaty investor visa?

The E-2 lets nationals of treaty countries live and work in the U.S. by investing a substantial amount of capital in a U.S. business they direct. It can be renewed indefinitely as long as the business remains active and viable.

Do I need to be in the U.S. to work with JBNP Law?

No. JBNP Law serves clients across the United States and internationally through a secure, fully remote process. Wherever you are, you’ll work directly with your attorney.

How long does the E-2 process take?

Timelines depend on whether you file through a U.S. consulate or within the U.S., and on current processing times. At your consultation we’ll give you a realistic timeline for your case.
