Success! We recently had an E-2 Visa Approved for 5 years for an investor from Canada who invested in a truck repair shop in Arizona. The E2 visa was approved after the US Consulate in Canada issued an initial denial and a request for further evidence (RFE) as discussed below. To learn more about E-2 visa for Canadians visit our page.
Even if most avoid discussing visa denials, E2 visa denials are real and same are requests for further evidence in E2 visa cases pending before US consulates abroad. Not every E2 visa case is successful on the first application, but with the assistance of an experienced E2 visa lawyer you can overcome even complex denials and issues raised on RFEs.
In this case, the first E2 visa application at the US Consulate in Canada was denied in September 2022. The company reapplied a second time after about 8 months. The Consulate issued an RFE instructing the investor to respond to the issues raised on the RFE by the date of the E2 visa interview. Our experienced E2 visa lawyer was able to assist the client with overturning the denial and responding to the RFE by devising a case strategy, making recommendations for client to implement, providing support and interview training.
The E-2 visa was approved for 5 years, the maximum period allowed under the treaty between US and Canada. The E-2 visa for investor’s family was also approved for 5 years.
You can obtain an E2 visa for a trucking business or truck repair business. In this case, the investor invested in the trucking business in the United States as a startup providing commercial truck and trailer repair and maintenance service. The company offers basic services such as preventive maintenance, brake change/adjustment, tire change and rotation, tire repair, oil change, engine, transmission, and suspension repair at client location. However, potential investors can also invest and obtain an E2 visa for trucking companies.
The E-2 Investor Visa is a nonimmigrant visa for individuals who make an investment in a commercial enterprise in the United States. The E-2 Investor Visa allows a national of a treaty country to temporary come to the United States together with their spouses and children to live and work. E-2 Investor Visa allows the Investor or Entrepreneur and their spouse and children to travel outside of the United States and re-enter. The E2 visa can be renewed indefinitely.
