How can I get an investment visa?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney William D. Fong (Unclaimed Profile)
Immigration lawyer at Fong Ilagan
There are 2 different investment visas: the E-2 nonimmigrant treaty investor visa and the EB-5 alien entrepreneur permanent resident visa. The E-2 is temporary, but you need to be from a country that has an investment treaty with the US. The EB-5 green card does not have any country restrictions. Both would require you to have actually invested or be in the process of investing the required amount of capital. To start, you should look to business brokers as to a business you may be interested in purchasing. You can also start a new business.

Is there any option to adjust the status of an adult child of a U.S. citizen and LPR to immigrant under his parent’s sponsorship?

Alena Shautsova
Answered by attorney Alena Shautsova
Immigration lawyer at Law Offices of Alena Shautsova
It depends who is who and how old is the child. Most likely: no, as the wait time for sons and daughters (over 21) for any category is much longer than B status allows to stay in the US.

I entered the U.S. In October 2011 on the Visa Waiver program. I overstayed for 4 months. Can I still file for AOS or do I get deported?

This question cannot be answered without more information. How is that you believe that you are eligible to apply for AOS? Is the basis for your proposed AOS family-based or employment-based? More information would be helpful to be able to provide an answer.
