EB-1(c) Multinational Manager Petition

Are you an executive of your company but had always wanted to start a business in the United States? There is a way to accomplish your goal. The EB-1C Multinational Executives and Managers Visa was created for this purpose to allow Multinational Executives and Managers who already have an existing company overseas and are interested in starting an extension of their overseas business in the United States. This visa also allows overseas companies to expand their businesses to the United States by permitting the overseas company to transfer Executives and Managers with an intimate knowledge of the company's operations to help with the start-up of the company.

This Visa is much better than the EB-5 Investment Visa as it requires MUCH less money to invest. Additionally, it allows a full Green Card to be issued, not just a conditional Green Card. Finally, there are no backlogs for this preference of petition.

Do you currently have your own business in your home country? Do you want to open a business in the United States? Have you already received the L-1 Nonimmigrant Visa? Do you want to want to apply for the Green Card through an employment-based visa petition? This type of petition might be the best employment way to obtain the Green Card. You do not need to have an investment of more than $1,000,000 or a million dollars. It is not granted conditionally for 2 years like the EB-5. It is not backlogged for years but is current. Yes, the EB-1( c ) might be the best way for you to get residency for you, your spouse and your children.

In order to initially even be considered for this type of visa, you will need to make sure that there is a company which you are a manager or executive in your home country (or a country outside of the U.S.) and then a branch office in the U.S. where you are a manager or executive. That would be the initial basis for you to apply for this type of investment visa. Note that the actual investment for this type of visa is much smaller than the EB-5 Investor Visa. Additionally, there is no necessity for a treaty with the foreign country such as with an E-2 Investment Visa or E-1 Treaty-Trader Visa.

While it would be better and more effective to use an experienced attorney, it is clear that many times people just do not have the funds to retain an attorney. Therefore, note that this EB-1(c) Multinational Manager Petition is made by an experienced immigration lawyer with nearly 30 years of experience. It is real and it was actually submitted. You can put your own facts and information in this petition, and note that it will be a very good sample for you to proceed with the EB-1 (c ).

This is the entrepreneurial way to obtain the Green Card without needing tons of money and without waiting years. It is possible to apply for the EB-1 ( c ) even through you do not have the L-1. However, it will be more difficult. One reason to do this if your children will age out and you need to hurry, it might be an option. If approved, it will be a permanent Green Card, not the 2 year conditional Green Card
