Immigration built on what you're building.

Some clients come to the United States through family; others come through enterprise — a company to grow, capital to invest, a market to enter. U.S. law has dedicated paths for them, and Turkey's treaty relationship with the United States opens doors many founders don't know exist.

This page explains the law in general terms. It is legal information, not legal advice about your case.

E-2 Treaty Investor Visa

The E-2 visa is for nationals of treaty countries — Turkey among them — who invest substantial capital in a real, operating U.S. business they will develop and direct. The statute sets no fixed minimum; what matters is that the investment is substantial relative to the business and genuinely at risk. The E-2 can be renewed indefinitely while the business operates and continues to qualify, and your spouse is authorized to work.

Talk to a lawyer before the money moves — how the investment is structured and documented often decides the case before it is filed. Book a consultation

L-1 Intracompany Transfers

If your company abroad has — or will open — a U.S. branch, subsidiary, or affiliate, the L-1 lets executives, managers, and employees with specialized knowledge transfer into the U.S. operation. For new offices the first approval is deliberately short, and the extension turns on what the business actually did in its first year. The business plan is not paperwork; it is the case.

Consider the L-1 when the company, not the individual, is the anchor of the move. Book a consultation

EB-5 Investor Green Card

EB-5 leads directly to permanent residence for investors who place at least $800,000 (in a targeted employment area; $1,050,000 elsewhere) into a new commercial enterprise creating at least ten U.S. jobs. It is the most capital-intensive path and the most document-intensive one: source-of-funds documentation is where EB-5 cases are won or lost.

EB-5 makes sense when permanent residence itself is the goal and the capital's paper trail is clean and provable. Book a consultation
