Qualifications as an Employee of an E-2 Treaty Investor
The following qualifications will apply if you want to obtain a work visa as an employee of an E-2 treaty investor:
- You must be in an executive or supervisory position or have such duties, which make you responsible for a significant part or all of the enterprise’s operation; or
- You must have special qualifications or skills that are proven to be essential to the enterprise’s operation; and
- You must be of the same nationality as your employer, or if the employer is an organization as opposed to an individual, such an organization must be at least 50% owned by persons of that nationality.
Is an E-2 Visa Right for You?
As an employee, an E-2 visa may be right for you if you meet the qualifications set forth above, but it is important to understand that there may be other options. An EB-5 or L-1B visa may be more appropriate, depending on your unique situation.
