How does the U.S. immigration process differ for Canadian citizens compared to other countries?

Yes, the E-2 Visa allows your spouse to apply for work authorization in the U.S.

How long can you stay in US with E-2 visa?

Qualified treaty investors and employees will be allowed a maximum initial stay of two years. Requests for extension of stay in, or changes of status to, E-2 classification may be granted in increments of up to two years each. There is no limit to the number of extensions an E-2 nonimmigrant may be granted. All E-2 nonimmigrants, however, must maintain an intention to depart the United States when their status expires or is terminated. An E-2 nonimmigrant who travels abroad may generally be granted, if determined admissible by a U.S. Customs and Border Patrol Officer, an automatic two-year period of readmission when returning to the United States.

What happens if an entrepreneur's visa expires while they are in the United States?

If an entrepreneur's visa expires while they are in the United States, they may need to apply for an extension or a change of status. It is important to take action before the visa expires to avoid accruing unlawful presence, which can have serious consequences for future visa applications.

Can an entrepreneur bring their family with them to the United States?

Yes, depending on the type of visa they obtain, an entrepreneur may be able to bring their spouse and children with them to the United States. However, family members may need to apply for their own visas or meet certain eligibility criteria.

How can an entrepreneur demonstrate their qualifications for a visa?

An entrepreneur can demonstrate their qualifications by providing documentation of their business experience, educational background, and financial resources. They may also need to provide a business plan and other supporting documents to show the viability of their business.

Can an entrepreneur apply for a green card?

Yes, entrepreneurs may apply for a green card through the EB-5 Immigrant Investor Program, which requires a minimum investment of $900,000 and the creation of at least 10 full-time jobs for U.S. workers.

What types of visas are available for entrepreneurs?

There are several visa options available for entrepreneurs, including the E-2 Treaty Investor Visa, the L-1 Intracompany Transferee Visa, and the EB-5 Immigrant Investor Visa. Each visa has different requirements and eligibility criteria.
