Grenada citizenship processing time

Contents: Processing Time | Details

Update: Congress passed the James M. Inhofe National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2023 (H.R. 7776/NDAA) on December 15, 2022.

Individuals who have obtained citizenship through financial investment must have been residing in that country continuously for at least 3 years before applying for an E Nonimmigrant Visa. 

The residency requirement does not apply to individuals previously granted E nonimmigrant status. The changes will limit the use of “Citizenship by Investment” programs of countries, such as Grenada, that have allowed investors who obtain citizenship in a treaty visa country to secure E-2 Nonimmigrant Visas while waiting for an available immigrant visa.
