What Are The Perks Of The E-2?

Up to 7 years at a time.
Visa validity is 5 years maximum, but time in the U.S. can be up to 7 years on one visa.
The Overview
The E-2 requires that you create your business before you apply. Investment only counts once it is spent on the business, i.e., money in your business bank account does not count as investment for the purpose of the E-2.
