E2 PROGRAM
ADVISORY
PROPOSAL
Natalie brings a background in senior home care coordination, built over years working directly in the sector she is now looking to invest in. Her husband has a chief-executive-level background in medical sales and will pursue employment in Florida once the family has relocated. Together with their two children, ages 14 and 10, they are relocating from Hamilton, Ontario to the greater Tampa Bay area — a deliberate family move built around acquiring an assisted living facility or rehab center that plays directly to Natalie's operational background.
Natalie — Principal Applicant
Senior Home Care Coordination Background
- Background in senior home-care coordination — direct operational experience in the sector being acquired
- Understands day-to-day facility operations, staffing, and resident/client care standards from the inside
- Designated primary E2 visa holder and managing operator of the acquired business
- Driving the relocation and the acquisition search alongside her husband
Husband — Dependent (E2-D)
Chief-Executive-Level Medical Sales Background
- Chief-executive-level experience in medical sales leadership
- Intends to seek employment in Florida once the family has relocated
- Background in medical sales complements a healthcare-adjacent acquisition — referral relationships, payer/provider familiarity
- Included as a dependent (E2-D) on Natalie's application, alongside both children
Acquisition Strategy
Buy an Established Assisted Living Facility or Rehab Center
- Target: an established assisted living facility or rehab center — not a startup or ground-up build
- Location: Palm Harbor, with flexibility across the greater Tampa Bay area
- Investment range: $300,000–$400,000; cash flow target of $150,000+ annually
- Growth profile: established with room to grow — not a plateaued business
- Existing staff and resident/client base in place at close — strongest E2 adjudication posture available
E2 Viability Assessment
Rating: Strong ✓
- Canadian passport — treaty country, E2 eligible
- Consulate route preferred — U.S. Consulate Toronto, to be confirmed during eligibility review
- Acquiring an existing, staffed facility — strongest adjudication posture available under E2
- Existing staff satisfies the job creation / "more than marginal" requirement from Day 1 at close
- Natalie's direct sector background anchors a credible, document-supported active management narrative
- Dependents: husband (E2-D) and both children — derivative visa coordination built into the engagement
Emanay Assessment: Natalie's direct operational background in senior home care gives this acquisition a credibility most E2 applicants don't bring to an assisted living or rehab center purchase — she isn't learning the sector, she's coming from it. Her husband's medical sales leadership background adds a natural complement on the referral and payer-relationship side. This reads as a genuine family relocation built around a business Natalie is qualified to run, not a visa vehicle. Emanay's job is to find the right facility, structure it cleanly, and get the family to Palm Harbor on their timeline.
This proposal outlines a comprehensive advisory, legal, financial, and acquisition mandate to identify, acquire, and operationalize a Tampa Bay–area assisted living facility or rehab center aligned with the E2 Visa framework. The mandate is built around Natalie's specific thesis: acquire an established, staffed facility, structure it for USCIS compliance, and position Natalie as the primary E2 holder and managing operator.
Corporate Structure & Governance
E2-aligned entity design for Florida operations, Natalie as managing member and primary E2 holder, and governance protocols aligned with USCIS requirements.
Financial Modeling & Accounting
GAAP-compliant financials, QoE review of the target facility, 12-month financial model, KPI framework, monthly close and reporting, and E2 capital validation documentation for USCIS.
Legal Infrastructure & Compliance
Florida entity formation, operating agreements, employment agreements for inherited staff, E2 compliance documentation, healthcare/facility licensing coordination, and immigration counsel coordination.
Buy-Side Acquisition Advisory
Targeted buy-side sourcing across Palm Harbor and the greater Tampa Bay area — assisted living and rehab facilities with existing staff and documented revenue. Full LOI, underwriting, due diligence, and close managed by Emanay's deal team.
Source-of-Funds & E2 Documentation
Investment documentation structuring, source-of-funds packaging, capital deployment tracking from acquisition close, and evidence package structured for USCIS adjudication standards.
Cross-Border Tax & Canadian Exit
CRA departure tax analysis, Canada–US treaty structuring, FBAR/FATCA compliance, RRSP treatment on relocation, and full US federal and Florida state tax setup for the new entity. Quoted separately — see Section 07.
The outcome is not simply visa qualification — it is a fully operational, revenue-producing Tampa Bay–area care facility with an existing staff and client base in place, and the infrastructure to grow, for a family with the direct sector background to run it well.
The Engagement Sprint (0–6 months) builds the complete business architecture required to satisfy E2 operational requirements and launch a functional, revenue-generating entity. For Natalie, this sprint runs in full parallel with an active Palm Harbor / Tampa Bay acquisition search — so the legal, financial, and operational infrastructure is ready to activate the moment the right facility is identified.

iii. Legal Infrastructure

- Growth plan mapped against the facility's existing headroom
v. Source-of-Funds & Capital Documentation
- Full documentation of investment capital — bank statements and earnings history
- Prior employment and earnings documentation packaged for USCIS
- Capital deployment timeline aligned with acquisition closing date and USCIS at-risk standard
vi. Buy-Side Acquisition
- Palm Harbor / Tampa Bay buy-side mandate activated immediately
- Target profile: established assisted living or rehab center, existing staff, documented recurring revenue
- Off-market outreach and proprietary deal flow prioritized alongside broker relationships
- LOI drafting, negotiation, financial underwriting, and close management by Emanay's deal team
Sprint Outcomes — Upon Completion Natalie Will Have: A fully structured, compliant Florida entity · An operational assisted living facility or rehab center with existing staff and residents/clients in place · A clean, fully documented source-of-funds and capital deployment package · Legal U.S. status established and the foundation to build.
Most listings in this space are marketed by brokers representing the seller, with little independent underwriting for the buyer. Emanay's buy-side mandate runs from Day 1 — sourcing, underwriting, and structuring a Tampa Bay–area assisted living or rehab center acquisition that works as both a qualifying E2 investment and a real business platform for Natalie's family to build on.
The Typical E2 Approach
- Take the seller's listing and financials at face value
- No independent financial underwriting on census, margin, or staffing
- Immigration lawyer files the visa; deal advisory is an afterthought
- Business selected for price, not operational fit
- Fragmented: law firm, broker, CPA, and advisor all working separately
The Emanay Approach
- Off-market sourcing and broker relationships — quality targets, not noise
- Institutional QoE and financial underwriting on the acquisition
- Deal advisory + legal + accounting fully integrated under one engagement
- Business selected for strategic fit — matched to Natalie's operational background
- Growth headroom built into the underwriting from Day 1 of ownership

Target Acquisition Profile
- Geography: Palm Harbor, with flexibility across the greater Tampa Bay area
- Business type: Assisted living facility or rehab center — established, not a startup
- Investment range: $300,000–$400,000
- Cash flow target: $150,000+ annually
- Growth profile: Established with room to grow — not a plateaued business
- Owner model: Owner-operated, ready for succession — motivated seller preferred
E2 Adjudication Alignment
- Substantial investment: Capital fully deployed at close — at risk, documented, non-refundable
- More than marginal: Existing revenue and headroom for growth = non-marginal business narrative
- Job creation: Existing staff retained at close — satisfies requirement on Day 1
- Active management: Natalie as managing operator, with direct sector background
- Treaty eligibility: Canadian passport — consulate route to be confirmed

Most E2 applicants spend months trying to coordinate a law firm, a business broker, a CPA, and a tax specialist — each billing separately, none communicating with each other. Emanay replaces all of them under a single engagement, so the acquisition, E2 filing, and cross-border tax exit all move on one unified timeline.

One Engagement. Four Divisions. Zero Fragmentation. Every practice coordinates in real-time from Day 1 — legal, financial, advisory, and real estate moving in parallel, not sequence. For Natalie's family, this means the acquisition, E2 filing, and Canadian tax exit advance on a single unified timeline.
The Emanay E2 Program is structured around five defined milestones with milestone-based fees. You pay on outcomes — not on hours, retainers, or calendar dates. Because this is filed as a single application carrying four family members through it, background checks and documentation for everyone are front-loaded into the earlier milestones, alongside the acquisition groundwork — both happening well before the facility even closes.

David Rosati is not just a member of the Emanay team — he is a former Emanay E2 client. A Canadian attorney with 15 years of experience, David went through the exact process Natalie's family is considering, relocated to Florida with his wife and kids, and now runs the E2 program he once needed. His story is the clearest proof that the right team, the right structure, and the right preparation make all the difference.
