Jan 2016 E-2 Investor Visas from Mexico
For years now, Mexican investors have led the rest of the world in the number of E-2 visas into the U.S.
The latest published statistics by the Department of Homeland Security reveal that Mexican entrepreneurs received the highest number of E-2 visas compared to other nationals from around the world. Interestingly, Japan ranks second, followed by Canada.
Another interesting trend is that the state of Texas has been the most popular destination for E-2 visa investor recipients in recent years. This trend appears to reflect the U.S. domestic economic growth patterns where Texas is also leading in GDP and housing growth.
Foreign investors should consider the E-2 visa strategy, as the U.S. government does not impose a quota on the number of E-2 visas that can be approved per year.

E2 Visa Points to Know
- Plan to Succeed: The U.S. government wants to see that the foreign investor has planned for success. Accordingly, the investor should provide a detailed 5-year business plan – forecasting capacity to generate sufficient revenue to exceed minimal living standards.
- 5 Year Business Plan Assistance: Verdin will assist in creating your 5 Year Business Plan. Call 214-741-1700 or 800-656-4232; or Contact Verdin.
- Create US Job Opportunities: The foreign investor should provide evidence to show that the enterprise will create job opportunities in the U.S. By expanding jobs in the U.S. economy, the investor can increase his or her probabilities of obtaining the E2 visa.
- Provide Evidence for Income Generation: An E2 applicant is to provide evidence that the enterprise will generate significant income at a level that is above a standard living income for the total number of family members in the investor’s household.
- Provide Documentation for Source of E2 Visa Investment: If the enterprise has the capacity to generate significant income then the investor should provide such evidence. For example, if the enterprise has already generated high sales volume, then the investor should provide bank statements and Profit & Loss statements to support the declaration of high income. We advise on all strategies and tools available, such as VIBE; a free tool the U.S. government uses this tool to investigate businesses.
