(MENAFN- EIN Presswire) EINPresswire/ -- Global Immigration Partners (GIP), a leading global immigration law firm specialising in business- and investment-based U.S. visas, today publishes an essential guide for treaty investors and applicants seeking clarity on how to check the status of their E‐2 Treaty Investor Visa application – E2 Visa Guide.

Why this matters

For entrepreneurs, business owners and investors pursuing the E-2 visa route, tracking your application progress can feel opaque. Understanding how to check your E-2 visa status helps you plan your next steps, manage expectations and address any potential issues early. As GIP sees in practice, delays or administrative holds often stem from application mis-tracking or failure to engage timely with the right portal or agency.

How to check your E-2 visa application status

There are two main pathways to monitor your E-2 visa application status, depending on where your application is in the process:

If your petition was filed with the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS)

Use USCIS's official tool:“Check Case Status Online”. You'll need your 13-character receipt number.
USCIS

Navigate to the USCIS portal at uscis, input your number and review the latest update.

If your case has been pending longer than published processing times, you may submit an“e-Request” or contact the USCIS Contact Centre.

If you are awaiting or undergoing consular processing (non-immigrant visa interview at a U.S. Embassy/Consulate)

Visit the Consular Electronic Application Centre (CEAC) Visa Status Check page. Use your“Case Number” or DS-160 barcode/confirmation details.

Alternatively, refer to the official U.S. government guidance:“Check the status of your visa application” on USA.

Typical status messages include: Application Received, Administrative Processing, Approved, Issued, or Refused. These reflect stages in consular processing rather than USCIS adjudication.

Practical tips for E-2 applicants

Keep your receipt or reference numbers safe and accessible – You will need them for online tracking.

Monitor both USCIS and consular portals if your case transitions from USCIS approval to consular visa issuance.

Interpret status terms carefully: For example,“Approved” at the consular stage means the decision is made, while“Issued” means the visa has been printed and is in your passport. Administrative processing may cause delays.

Be aware of processing time benchmarks: Use published USCIS processing times to evaluate whether your case is proceeding on schedule.

Contact your attorney or our firm if unusual status updates appear (e.g.,“Refused under 221(g)”, prolonged administrative processing) or if your case significantly exceeds published norms.
