Building a U.S. presence through investment can be a strategic path for entrepreneurs, business owners, and globally mobile professionals seeking the opportunity to live and operate in the United States. In this seminar, Visa Franchise outlines the most common investment-based immigration options, including the E-2 visa and key alternatives such as L-1A, O-1A, and E-1. Participants will gain a clear understanding of what the E-2 visa is, who qualifies, and what it takes to build a strong application. This includes essential requirements such as treaty nationality, ownership structure, lawful source of funds, and making a substantial investment in an active, for-profit U.S. business. The seminar also reviews timelines for different investment routes, including franchise purchases, starting a new business, or buying an existing company. To make the process tangible, the presentation includes real-world success stories from international founders and investors who successfully relocated to the U.S. through investment or transitioned from temporary visas to permanent residency. Attendees will also learn how Visa Franchise supports clients with end-to-end coordination, from business selection and due diligence to banking setup, business planning, and document preparation in partnership with immigration attorneys.
