MYTH: I Need At Least 100K For An E2 Visa 11/01/2023

E2 visas can be obtained with investments well under $100K and even below $50K. There is a common myth that E2 investors must spend at least $100K, but our track record of approvals with lower investment amounts proves this wrong. The required investment amount is different for every business, and no set amount of money is required to apply for an E2 Visa.

Basics of the EB-2 National Interest Waiver (NIW) Green Card Application 10/27/2023

The EB-2 National Interest Waiver (NIW) is an extremely versatile green card category that gives immigrants the opportunity to move permanently to the US based on their proposed endeavors for work. The key to receiving a green card with this method is making sure you display how your skills and work serve the national interests of the United States.

Happy Fourth of July from all of us at Shaffer Immigration Law PLLC! Today we celebrate the independence of this great nation, where people find freedom, opportunity, and rule of law. As an immigration attorney, I have a keen understanding of how immigrants are a vital part of our country's fabric. A highly rewarding aspect of practicing immigration law is the opportunity to collaborate with clients who have achieved remarkable feats and are recognized as pioneers in their industries. I work with some of the world's most impressive entrepreneurs, artists, athletes, engineers, and scientists. Learning about their accomplishments, applying for their green cards, and watching what they accomplish in the US is the highlight of my practice. There is a reason that the world's top performers choose the US as their home and thrive; that must be protected and preserved. Happy Independence Day!
