Visa Qualifying Businesses
​
This is simply a term used by Business Brokers, and is in no way associated with any form of approval from USCIS. What it means is that the seller has what should be the correct documentation and financials in order for you to be able to submit a visa application. It also means a seller is willing to accept a visa contingent offer and wait the time required for your visa application.

These are investment visas where you, or you through your overseas business would invest in a U.S business, which in turn would qualify you for the right to legally live here.

The L-1A nonimmigrant classification enables a U.S. employer to transfer an executive or manager from one of its affiliated foreign offices to one of its offices in the United States. This classification also enables a foreign company which does not yet have an affiliated U.S. office to send an executive or manager to the United States with the purpose of establishing one.

EB Visa (route to a green card)
​
​There are two options to this route (EB 1 and EB 2). One is with a minimum of $ 500,000 invested, through a government approved program, and the other is through investing $ 1,000,000 into a new business, and create a certain number of jobs. Both have very strict guidelines, so be sure to find a good immigration attorney who can guide you through it.
