The E-2 Investor Visa allows an individual to enter and work inside of the United States based on an investment he or she will be controlling, while inside the United States. This visa must generally be renewed every five years, but there is no limit to how many times one can renew. The investment must be "substantial". Investor visas are available only to treaty countries,[1] which include countries like Albania and Senegal, but do not include Brazil, Russia, India and China.[2]

They want you to show that you plan to leave the US eventually, and any time spent in the US can't be used towards applying for citizenship, etc. Confusingly, http://www.peerallylaw.com/en/content/view/517 http://www.peerallylaw.com/en/content/view/517 says that some government departments allow dual intent on the E2... In summary: maintaining correct visa status in the US can be hard.
