Scott Legal, P.C. is pleased to announce a successful second E-2 extension approval with U.S. Citizenship & Immigration Services for an automobile repair business based in Louisiana. The investor was granted an additional two years to develop and direct the business, showcasing the firm’s expertise in handling multiple E-2 renewals.
Crucially, E-2 dependent statuses were also approved for the client’s family, which includes open work authorization for the spouse. An approval from USCIS allows the foreign national and their family to continue living and working in the U.S. and running the business. However, it is important to note that this extension does not permit international travel; a new visa stamp would be required for re-entry. This case demonstrates the stability and opportunities the E-2 visa offers for growing businesses and families.
