Disclaimer

Alpha Mind Consulting is a business strategy and advisory firm. We do not provide immigration legal advice, visa-related advisory services, or immigration eligibility assessments of any kind.

Our role in the mobility process is strictly limited to business consulting — including business identification, franchise selection, business acquisition support, business planning, financial modelling, and investment structure advisory.

All immigration legal advice, visa applications, eligibility assessments, and legal guidance are provided exclusively by our panel of licensed and qualified immigration attorneys and RCIC partners, who are independently engaged for each client matter. Alpha Mind Consulting does not file, prepare, or advise on visa applications.

If you have questions about visa eligibility, immigration law, or the legal requirements of any visa pathway, those questions will be directed to our licensed legal partners.

US

The E-2 Investor Visa Is One of the Most Accessible Routes to Building a Business Life in theUnited States.

We provide the complete business foundation for your E-2 application — and our licensed US immigration attorney partners manage the legal and visa process.

About the E-2

What is the E-2 Visa?

The E-2 Investor Visa allows nationals of treaty countries to live and work in the United States by making a substantial investment in a US business. It is one of the most accessible and practical options for professionals and investors who want to relocate to the US through business ownership.

Alpha Mind Consulting’s role is to build the business foundation that makes a strong E-2 application possible — identifying the right business, structuring the investment correctly, and preparing a comprehensive, credible business plan.

“We handle everything before the lawyer. By the time our attorney partners file your application, your business case is bulletproof.”

Our Business Advisory Scop

For E-2 Pathway Clients

Business identification and evaluation

Finding a business or franchise that is commercially viable and matched to your investment profile, sector background, and long-term commercial goals.

Independent financial analysis

Reconstructing and validating financials from source documents — P&L, cash flow, and working capital — independently of broker-presented figures. We verify what you are actually buying before you commit a single dollar.

Investment structure advisory

Advising on how the business investment should be structured and documented from a commercial and financial perspective.

Business plan preparation

Building a comprehensive business plan that addresses the commercial, operational, and financial dimensions of the business — including executive summary, market analysis, operational plan, organisational structure, and five-year financial projections.

Financial modelling and job creation analysis

Preparing detailed financial projections and employment impact analysis built on realistic, defensible commercial assumptions — not broker estimates.

Source of funds documentation

Organising and presenting the investment capital narrative clearly, credibly, and in a format that withstands scrutiny.

Coordination with legal partners

Working closely with our licensed US immigration attorneys who manage the visa application, legal documentation, and USCIS process — ensuring the business case we build is exactly what they need to file a strong application.

Note: All advice on visa pathway eligibility, treaty country status, and USCIS requirements is provided exclusively by our licensed immigration attorney partners, not by Alpha Mind Consulting.

Clear Division of Work

What our legal partners handle

All immigration legal advice, visa eligibility assessment, application preparation, USCIS filing, and representation before USCIS and consular officers is handled exclusively by our panel of licensed US immigration attorneys. Alpha Mind Consulting does not provide immigration advice or legal services of any kind.

NOTE: The E-2 visa landscape is subject to regulatory change. We recommend speaking with our licensed immigration attorney partners for the most current guidance on eligibility and treaty country status.

FAQ

Common Questions

What is the minimum investment for E-2?

There is no statutory minimum, but practical thresholds typically start around USD $80,000 - $100,000. Your licensed immigration attorney will assess what qualifies as "substantial" relative to the business cost. Alpha Mind helps you build the financial foundation; visa eligibility is confirmed by our legal partners.

How long does the E-2 process take?

Timeline varies. Business plan preparation typically takes 4-8 weeks. Visa processing timeframes are confirmed by our legal partners based on current consulate workloads and the specific treaty country.

Can my family come with me on E-2?

Generally yes — spouse and unmarried children under 21 are typically eligible for dependent status. Specific eligibility, work authorisation for spouses, and any conditions are confirmed by our licensed legal partners on first consultation.

Which countries qualify for E-2?

Only nationals of "treaty countries" with the United States qualify for E-2. Our legal partners maintain the current list and will confirm your eligibility on first consultation.
