Have I got this right, you have to buy the business wether you get a visa or not? No attorney should advise you go forward with that, it is way too risky. Many e2 applications fail. Also what appears to be a good e2 business on paper, often is not. Usually supported by unstable contracts.
It is your decision but I would not go ahead under a one sided contract.

Thanx again Blott & Julie for your guidance on this point of ours. I am using Lesley yes & we did have a point in the clause in the contract for the E2, but the seller is moving & wanted (we think more like his broker, a quicker sale pref to a USA buyer)... & the clause was taken out as they were gonna keep advertising the buisness.. & we didnt want a phone call after we had done some work that someone else had put in a higher offer or could move faster than us.
On paper (initially) Lesley says it seems like a good biz, employs 3, lots of owner benefit etc, running long time.. but we do still have a get out card in the contract if the accounts dont add up!!? Ball now starts moving tomorrow for all...
Contract was only signed last week.... what would you do ? I doubt i could change the contract now to resubmit the clause? [msnoo]

Will look out for you Julie on the other forum too ok.... [msnsmile2]
