The U.S. Consulate in Toronto has just approved an E-2 investor visa application for our client. The applicant, a national of Canada, will co-own and operate a private school in Texas.
As part of applying for an E2 visa, you will need to submit a DS160 form, pay a visa fee, and after the Consulate reviews your petition, you will be able to schedule an interview.
You can have an E-2 petition pending simultaneously with USCIS and at a U.S. Consulate abroad and each of them will make their own decision whether you qualify for the E2 visa/status.
