An Investor in Home Construction

E-2 Treaty Investor

Our firm was retained by the majority owner of a U.S. residential construction company to prepare an E-2 treaty investor application filed at a U.S. consular post.

‍

The central challenge was marginality: the enterprise had been founded barely a year before filing, and the officer needed to see a business that already generated more than a living for the investor. We documented that the full investment had been irrevocably committed and spent on vehicles, tools, materials, and subcontracted trade services, and that the company was already paying construction workers. We paired that record with a five-year business plan projecting significant turnover.

Ownership, control, and operations were each proved through a dedicated exhibit tab: corporate records, wire transfers, bank statements, and subcontractor invoices. The result: an approved E-2 visa without any delays.
