Key Takeaways

One of the most common questions from K-1 visa holders exploring business funding is: how much can I actually get? The answer from Bankable is up to $5,000,000 -- and that ceiling is the same regardless of whether you hold an EAD, a green card, or a U.S. passport. Immigration status does not cap your maximum; your business revenue does.

This guide explains the exact formula Bankable uses to calculate maximum funding amounts for K-1 applicants, what factors push the number higher, and realistic expectations for different revenue levels.

The Bankable Funding Formula

Bankable's maximum funding offer is based primarily on your average gross monthly revenue over the most recent 3-6 months. The multiplier applied to that average determines your offer range:

Example: A trucking business generating $80,000 in average monthly revenue would typically qualify for an initial advance of $80,000-$120,000. After successful repayment, the second advance could reach $160,000. A long-term Bankable client at the same revenue level could access $240,000 or more.

Why Banks Fail K-1 Entrepreneurs

Traditional banks evaluate business loan applications through a lens built for citizens and permanent residents. They demand two or more years of US tax returns, a Social Security number with a long credit history, and often require a green card or citizenship as an unstated condition. K-1 holders in the adjustment of status period rarely meet all these criteria simultaneously.
