What is the time limit for an E-2 Visa?
The E-2 “investor visa” is valid for periods of 2 years with unlimited extensions that need to be filed in order to keep the E-2 visa current, so, there is no specific period of time that a beneficiary and his/her family may remain in the U.S., as long as there is an ultimate intention to depart, as opposed to intending to pursue an immigrant visa (green card). For the E-2 visa, there is actually no requirement to even show a foreign residence.
