Checklist

The E-2 Treaty Investor Visa allows foreign nationals from treaty countries to live and work in the U.S. by making a substantial investment in a U.S. business. This non-immigrant visa is renewable indefinitely, provided the business remains operational. Key benefits include no fixed minimum investment requirement, inclusion of family members, and flexibility in business ownership. To qualify, applicants must demonstrate that they are nationals of a treaty country, have invested in a viable business, and maintain operational control.

The EB-2 National Interest Waiver (NIW) checklist helps applicants navigate the process of securing a green card without a job offer. It outlines key eligibility criteria, including having an advanced degree or exceptional ability, demonstrating the national importance of the work, and providing supporting documentation such as a detailed resume, recommendation letters, and a comprehensive business plan. Following this checklist ensures a thorough and organized approach to the NIW application.
