Additionally spouses and dependents of the investor are eligible to enter the USA under the E-2 and may apply for US work authorization. While there is no set minimum investment to qualify for this program investors should be prepared to provide a minimum of $100,000 USD towards their business investment. The business must not be considered "marginal" and should provide jobs for US workers.
The E-2 Franchise program matches prospective E-2 Visa applicants with well known American Franchise Companies. We will select and set up franchise for you in USA.
