Nationals of countries that have a treaty of commerce and navigation with the U.S. may obtain E-1 visas. However, they must be coming to the U.S. solely to engage in substantial international trade between their country and the U.S. While E-1 visas are initially granted for two years, they can be extended indefinitely if the foreign national continues to meet the eligibility requirements. Spouses and children under 21 can also accompany E-1 visa holders, as well as employees of a treaty trader or a company that has the nationality of the treaty country.

Paralegal Jazzmin was so patient and very clear during my pre-consultation she was extremely helpful with the questions I was asking. Thanks again for the help Jazzmin!
Grateful to have chosen such a wonderful caliber of legal counsel for representation in my Naturalization process. To Attorney Saman and her Legal Team: Sol & Nalleli, a personal thank you for bridging the guidance, the integrity & rigorous advocacy that you have provided me, as a client. A personal note of thanks also to Ms. Connie L. in Accounting for having open communication & attention to detail both in empathy & in the mutual financial goals, while being legally compliant.
I would recommend this team if in need of legal counsel for the exceptional client service they provide, from the start of the phone call to the very end.

The entire team at US ILC, is phenomenal. Attorney Saman Movassaghi Gonzalez Esq.'s was whom initially took acceptance of my case. From its inception to the final touches near the end, with Attorneys George Gomez & Jesus Milian Esq., exceptional lawyers, and focusly aligned team of paralegals and office staff are incredibly helpful and organized. They never let my questions go unanswered.
A huge thank you, your professionalism will be remembered when I recommend counsel to anyone who may need your services.
Excellent service with knowledgable and helpful people. I had the pleasure of speaking with one of the top paralegals (Maria Isabel) at the firm and she was nothing but helpful and kind. I am looking forward to starting our process with this firm. Highly recommend.
Best Attorney to handle your green card -application process. The team Marisol was very thorough with the Prep for the Interview. She went through all the details. Luis and Arianne was very thorough when it came to information needed. Arianne was very helpful in acquiring all the documents for the upload and putting them together. Looking forward to complete my case with this efficient team.
We met with many members of staff during our case and they were very knowledgeable and cooperative. Ms. Savita Ramkalawan was very professional and honest with respect to our case and I’m very grateful for her assistance.
During my immigration process, I hired two law firms before U.S. Immigration Law Counsel. My only regret was not hiring U.S. Immigration Law Counsel from the inception. Attorney Oni Taffe was thorough and well prepared. I was also assisted by Nicolas Remolina, who routinely provided updates on the case and meticulously prepared the supporting materials. Thank you, U.S. Immigration Law Counsel!
