Success! We recently had an E2 Visa Approved for an investor from Slovenia, who invested in an existing online business in California. The E2 visa was approved at US Embassy in Slovenia, Ljubljana for 5 years, the maximum period allowed under the treaty between US and Slovenia. The E2 visa for investor’s family was also approved for 5 years. The overall processing time was 3 weeks. The E2 visa interview lasted about 45 minutes and it was comprehensive and in-depth.
The investor, a citizen of Slovenia sought an E2 visa to invest in their existing online business, which had been operational for a few years. The investor has been operating YouTube channels and selling digital products for their online business for several years.
This E2 visa case was complex and presented two challenges. First, the E2 visa was for an online business without physical presence. And second, the investor’s business was already established online for several years before applying, unlike a typical startup scenario.
To address the complexities of this E2 visa application for an established online business, we have worked with a highly skilled California business corporate lawyer. Together, we developed a comprehensive corporate strategy ensuring the company aligns with E2 visa requirements. Our law firm also crafted a meticulous business valuation together with a compelling E2 visa business plan to demonstrate the company’s value and justify the investment amount for the immigration officers.
Many business and investment immigration cases face scrutiny on the financial aspect of the US company. What sets us apart is our in-house financial and business expertise. Our team includes a Chartered Financial Analyst (CFA), one of the most respected designations in finance, with an extensive business valuation expertise, including E2 visa business valuations. This allows us to provide expert financial analysis directly to immigration officers, addressing any potential concerns about the business or investment value upfront and minimizing the risk of questions and requests for further evidence.
The E2 Investor Visa is a nonimmigrant visa designed for individuals from E2 treaty countries who make an investment in a business in the United States.
