Getting An Investor Visa For The USA

By Sam McDougall Turner

Getting a US citizenship is a dream for millions of people from around the world. In spite of the growing number of people who are being granted citizenship each year, there still is a waiting list which will take over a decade to clear! And more applications are pouring in every single day at all the embassies over the world.

One of the main reasons that the USA is so desirable to people from less economically developed countries because of the reputation it has; the land of freedom and opportunity. People from all over the world have dreams of moving to America and starting up 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 going about getting an investor visa for the USA.

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. - 23217
