Re: E2 Renewal
The E2 visa is an entirely different kettle of fish.
You should take a look at http://www.thefloridaforums.com Lots of E2 people there with recommendations. One couple have just got theirs renewed for 5 years, but they had to wait 18 months for it to be processed.

Re: E2 Renewal
What visa are you on now then? Are you employed with a large company? My husband's American firm was bought by a large British firm and they shipped loads of workers over on the E2 treaty trader.

Re: E2 Renewal
L1 - yes a large company with large quota of E2 visas - the only reason I got an L1 when first coming over was that the guy in the US Embassy who processed E2 has retired and not been replaced so they werent processing any for a while and they needed me here toot sweet!

E2 spouses are also allowed to work, which is more than can be said for H4's.

E2- Treaty Investor Visas may be issued with a validity of 5 years but the
period of admission is only good for 1 year max at a time. To extend your
time of authorized stay you must file Form I-539 with all the supporting
evidence that your business is still viable.

I dont think that is correct - you can stay for 12 AFTER your visa expires - the I-94 you get on entry isn't limited to 12 months from time of entry - that is the experience of colleagues and my legal advice

Correction: I meant to say: "...only good for 2 years max at a time."
You use Form I-129 and Supplement E to request extensions of stay but they
may be granted not more than 2 years at a time.

No-one is doing anyting outside the law as it is immigration that stamps the I-94?
