The E2 visa, without the franchise trap.
Every immigration lawyer tells you the same thing: buy a $300K franchise you do not want to run. We do it differently, with an Airbnb business that pays you while your visa is processed.
Why Airbnb arbitrage qualifies
- Active business with real operations (not passive real estate)
- Substantial investment in a bona fide US enterprise
- Job creation (cleaners, property managers, guest services)
- Investor directs and develops the business
- Already approved through our lawyer's playbook
What doesn't qualify
- Buying a single rental property and holding it
- Passive REIT or syndication investments
- Crypto, stocks, or other passive holdings
- A business you have no role in running
The Lawyer
The lawyer who got Colin approved now handles every client.
Colin went through two failed lawyers before he found one who understood Airbnb arbitrage as a qualifying E2 enterprise. That third lawyer structured it properly and got him approved. He now files every single one of our client cases. He knows the exact narrative USCIS wants and has done it dozens of times.
Treaty countries (partial list)
The E2 visa is available to citizens of countries with an active treaty of commerce with the US. Below is a sample - full list is verified on your discovery call.
Not on the list? Some countries (India, China, Brazil) are not treaty countries for E2. Book a call and we will walk through your specific options, including citizenship-by-investment paths.
