Part 7 – E2 Visas – E2 Renewals
Welcome to the Law Offices of Chris M. Ingram. We are delighted that you have joined us for Part 7 in our video presentation series on the E2 Investment visa. In this presentation we’ll discuss E2 visa renewals. Ok – lets get started.
In our second presentation in the series we did touch upon the issue of E2 visa renewal. How many times an E2 visa can be renewed comes under what is called the Doctrine of Reciprocity. In layman’s terms it simply refers to what the countries have individually agreed with the US as to how long each E2 visa can be issued for and secondly how many times the E2 visa can be renewed.
Not all countries have the same reciprocity terms so it’s very important that you check the terms for your country.
Many of our clients arrive in the US on a B1/B2 visa and prefer to apply for their E2 visa in the US; this is a great idea where less than two years is granted in their home country. However, if they leave the US at any time and return to their home country Embassy to have their visas stamped into their passport then Embassy will follow the reciprocity rules regardless as to the two years there would have been granted from having filed in the US. Please make sure you discuss your situation in this regard with us very carefully indeed.
Here is a full breakdown of the reciprocity terms for your kind perusal. For example, for British citizens E2 visas can be issued for up to five years at a time and be renewed as many times as requested.
E2 Visa Success Story: Kathryn – What I love most about Kathryn’s story is that she came all the way from Australia on her own to set up a business from scratch. I guess the pioneering call of the America is a pretty loud one. We worked with Kathryn from start to finish and now we’re so proud of her achievements. Kathryn was awesome to work with in that what ever we needed to perfect her case she was always willing, ready and eager to oblige.
