Re: E2 Visa Process
Sounds logical, for there to be an E2 Employee available there has to be an E2 Business.

Re: E2 Visa Process
Hi All,
Could anyone help share some light on something for me as I can't get a straight answer from our lawyers or my HR team. We filed our DS160 in May(E2 Employee MNG/Exec and Dependants), my lawyers told me they take care of paying the MRV visa fee's and to leave it with them as they are going to handle mine and my dependants visas and processes. As I went to the AIS Portal to pay and they told me not to continue to pay.
I have since found out the primary E2 visa for our company expired in June, they filed for extension in Jan this year but only just go an appointment for the primary E2 holder to renew in Feb 22.
Am I right in thinking I can not get my visa until the primary one is renewed and in status again and this is why they aren't paying my MRV fee.
Thanks to anyone who can try to help me understand this.

I don’t know if your thinking is correct or not.
General comment from when I was in practice, consulates do not like getting inquiry from applicants when they have an attorney. They need to know who they are dealing with. In fact, it may be more than need, they may be violating rules in communicating directly with applicant.

Re: E2 Visa Process
Let me simplify my question. I believe the previous two responses understood what I was asking.
If the primary E2 visa is expired(the one my managing director has obtained for our company and held for 5 years) but an extension application is in process, can my company still obtain an E2 Employee visa for me.
Or do we have to wait until the primary E2 Visa holder has their new extension issued and then I will be in position to obtain the visa.
Thanks.

So, I can give an educated answer that I don’t know.
