Can You Apply for an E2 Visa While You're in the United States? Bovino Law Group, P.A. |

Can you apply for an E2 visa while you're in the United States? Schedule a Consultation ➡️ https://bovinolawgroup.setmore.com. You can’t apply for an E2 visa while you’re in the United States because visas are only issued by U.S. embassies and consulates abroad, but you can apply to change your legal “status” to an E2 treaty investor while you’re in the USA. Think of E2 visas as entry tickets to the United States. To get one, you have to be in another country. But while you’re in the USA, you have a “status." So, for example, if you entered the United States on a tourist visa with the intention of engaging in tourism but change your mind for some legitimate reason at some point during the latter part of your stay and decide to become an E2 visa investor, you can petition the USCIS to change your legal status from B2 to E2. You won’t have an E2 visa, but you will have E2 status, under certain conditions. One of the biggest advantages of petitioning for E2 visa status while you’re in the United States is the opportunity to request premium (expedited) processing. For a premium processing fee of $2,500 (as of the time of this writing), you can get a response from the USCIS to your E2 visa petition within just 15 days. That’s as fast as it gets. And if USCIS grants your petition, you’ll already be in the United States and ready to get to work in your new E2 visa enterprise right away. With so many U.S. embassies and consulates either closed or not operating at full capacity, immediate access to your business in the U.S. can be invaluable. But there are significant disadvantages to petitioning for E2 status in the USA rather than applying for an E2 visa abroad. Here are two of the most notable. First, if USCIS grants your petition for E2 status, your status will only be valid for an initial period of 2 years during your stay in the United States. You can renew it if you’re E2 business remains operational and you meet other requirements for an E2 visa investment, but E2 visas are commonly issued abroad and valid for a period of 5 years, not two, and those are renewals, too. Second, if you change your legal status to E2 while in the USA, you’ll lose that status the minute you leave the United States (with a few minor exceptions), and you won’t be able to enter the United States again unless and until you apply for an E2 visa all over again. So, for example, what happens if a family member dies abroad and you want to attend the funeral? You can go, but you're going to lose your E2 status when you leave the USA. In addition, U.S. embassy and consulate officials do not need to take your former E2 status into account when determining if you deserve an E2 visa. They can and will take a fresh look at your situation and make their own decision, which increases the cost and complexity of the matter, not to mention delays abroad in processing. In contrast, E2 visa holders can enter and leave the United States freely without losing their visa or status. What is the best move for you? Well, it depends. With so many U.S. embassies and consulates closed or barely operational, and with all of the consequent delays, you may decide that the advantages of petitioning for E2 status while you’re in the United States outweigh the disadvantages. It’s increasingly common these days. Or, if your home country's embassy is providing good service, or you’re not in a hurry, you may decide to go for the 5-year visa instead.
