What is the minimum investment for the E-2?
Answer
There's no official minimum — USCIS uses the 'substantial investment' concept proportional to the business. In practice, investments below $100,000 are rarely approved. A healthy baseline is $150,000-$200,000 for service businesses, and more for franchises or inventory-heavy operations.
