About The E-2 U.S. Visa Program

The E-2 visa is a temporary residency visa for investors from countries that have a Treaty of Commerce and Navigation with the U.S., such as Grenada, Turkey, and Montenegro. The E-2 visa allows investors, along with their spouses and children under 21, to live, study, and work anywhere in the U.S.

The processing time for the E-2 visa is typically under 1 year, and the requirements are simpler compared to some other visa types. It is an ideal option for families looking to quickly move to the U.S. so that their children can start their education.
