The Law Offices of Tahir Mella
Philadelphia, Pennsylvania E-2 Visa Lawyers
Foreign investors and developers interested in establishing or purchasing a business in the United States require an E-2 visa. Under the terms of the visa, only persons from countries with whom the Unites States has a trade agreement are eligible. Additionally, investors must document existing funds they have committed to their proposed business enterprise -- a business plan or guarantee that such funds will be available once the E-2 visa is granted is not enough. At the Law Offices of Tahir Mella, our E-2 visa attorneys counsel and represent foreign entrepreneurs interested in obtaining an E-2 visa. Working closely with our clients, our office prepares any necessary paperwork, coordinates the providing of information, and apprises clients of nuances in the law and what they can expect in order to qualify for the E-2 visa.

Qualifying for an E-2 Visa
Investments and business enterprises falling under an E-2 visa must be "for profit" and substantial in nature. In order to determine if an investment is substantial, either the State Department or the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services will apply a proportionality test to your investment or business. As your legal counsel and representatives, our immigration and visa lawyers ensure your documents, financial records, and other papers are in order when providing information regarding the extent of your investments. We identify potential problems before they delay your application and business venture, providing legal solutions and advice to better position your E-2 visa application.
