USCIS Ends E 1 and E 2 Visa Eligibility for Iranian Nationals
USCIS announced that the 1955 Treaty of Amity, Economic Relations, and Consular Rights with Iran was terminated. Consequently, Iranian nationals do not qualify any more to apply for E-1 and E-2 treaty investor’s visa or extend their current visas. The USCIS intends to send Notices of Intent to Deny (NOID) to all Iranian applicants who filed applications for E-1 or E-2 visas.
