Investment Immigration

Investment immigration programs, such as the EB-5 visa, allow you to obtain U.S. residency by investing in a business that creates jobs. Elsharnoby & Associates provides expert guidance throughout the investment immigration process, from evaluating investment opportunities to preparing and filing your application. In addition to the EB-5 visa, we also assist clients with E2 and L1A visa applications, offering a full spectrum of investment-based immigration services.

Investment Evaluation

We help you assess potential investment opportunities to ensure they meet the requirements for the EB-5 program or other investment-based visas. This includes verifying the project’s legitimacy and job creation potential.

Application Preparation

Our team assists in preparing your investment immigration application, including Form I-526 for EB-5 or the appropriate forms for E2 and L1A visas. We ensure that all documentation is complete and meets the program’s criteria.

Filing and Monitoring

We submit your application and monitor its progress, addressing any requests for additional information or issues that arise. We keep you informed throughout the process and assist with any follow-up actions.

E2 Visa

The E2 visa allows investors from treaty countries to enter the U.S. to manage or direct an investment in an active commercial enterprise. Unlike the EB-5, the E2 visa does not have a fixed minimum investment amount, but the investment must be substantial relative to the total cost of the business. We guide you through the E2 application process, ensuring your investment meets all necessary criteria.

L1A Visa

The L1A visa is designed for multinational companies to transfer executives or managers from an overseas office to a U.S. branch. This visa requires the U.S. company to have a qualifying relationship with the foreign business and for the individual to have worked in a managerial or executive capacity for at least one year within the past three years. We help businesses and individuals navigate the complexities of the L1A visa application process, ensuring all requirements are met.
