  • E-1 and E-2 Treaty Trader/Investor Visa:
    These visa classifications allow a national of a treaty country (a country with which the United States maintains a treaty of commerce and navigation) to come to the United States solely to engage in international trade on his or her own behalf or to invest a substantial amount of capital in a U.S. business.
  • L-1 Intracompany Transferee Visa:
    The L-1 visa enables a U.S. employer to transfer an executive, manager, or an employee with specialized knowledge relating to the organization’s interests, from one of its affiliated foreign offices to one of its offices in the United States.
  • EB-5 Immigrant Investor:
    This immigrant visa category allows foreign investors the chance to obtain lawful permanent residency in the United States by making a capital investment in new commercial enterprises in the United States which will provide a minimum of 10 full-time U.S jobs.

Abraham Benhayoun Immigration Law Office understands the unique challenges and opportunities that come with seeking investment-based visas. We are dedicated to crafting personalized strategies that recognize the distinct needs of each client, ensuring the most effective pathway to achieving your immigration goals.

  • Select the Right Visa Type: Determine which investment-based visa category best suits your goals. Common options include the EB-5 Immigrant Investor Program and the E-2 Treaty Investor Visa.
  • Investment Amount: Ensure you meet the required minimum investment amount for the chosen visa category.
  • Business Plan: Develop a comprehensive business plan that outlines your investment project, including job creation plans, financial projections, and the impact on the local economy.
  • Regional Centers (EB-5): Consider a regional center’s track record, including past projects and reputation, to gauge its credibility and success rate. Evaluate the viability of the specific project offered, ensuring it aligns with your investment goals, risk tolerance, and factors like market demand and potential challenges.
  • Due Diligence: Conduct thorough due diligence on the investment project and the individuals involved. Ensure the project is compliant with all legal and regulatory requirements.
  • Source of Funds: Clearly document the source of your investment funds. Both the USCIS and the DOS require that the funds come from lawful sources.
  • Job Creation: Understand the job creation requirements associated with your chosen visa. The EB-5 program, for example, typically requires the creation of 10 full-time jobs per investor.
  • Legal Counsel: Seek legal counsel from experienced immigration attorneys who specialize in investment-based visas. They can guide you through the complex application process.
  • Maintain Active Involvement: For the E-2 Visa, ensure that you actively manage and develop the business you’ve invested in.
