E2 investor visa

[stebbinsd]

After researching, I learned that the investor visa applicant can't just promise to invest; he must actually have already begun investing.

How, exactly, do you invest in an American company when you don't even have a visa to the US, yet?

Do you just make plans to go to a franchise training seminar? How many franchise trainers will be willing to schedule you about a year in advance?

Like, do you hire an American pen pal, like myself, to secure deals for the business?

How, exactly, does that work?

You can also put the money in escrow...or you can file for a visa while you are under contract and have the visa as a contigency of the aquiring of the company.

Make sure you have a good lawyer, which can help your deal a lot. He will tell you what papers you need to provide.

And you need to make a good business plan. Mostly an existing business is easier to obtain an E2 then starting from scratch.
