E-2 Approval for a Business with Relatively Low Capital
E-2 is a nonimmigrant status available to investors from certain countries who wish to operate a business in the U.S. To acquire E-2 status, the investment must be "substantial" and more than "marginal". When the investment is less than $100,000, getting a USCIS approval can be difficult, especially if the business is a start-up company. We represented a start-up company with $60,000 capital for its E-2 case, and by explaining a nature of its business and providing a detailed business plan, we obtained USCIS approval for the client.
