The documentation required to apply for T visa business funding through Bankable is minimal by design. We built our application around the documents every operating business already has — not the documents that have historically been used to exclude immigrant entrepreneurs.
Required Documents for Bankable T Visa Business Funding
Primary Documentation (Required for All Applications):
- Business Bank Statements: 3-6 months of complete business checking account statements. This is the single most important document — it shows your revenue, consistency, and cash flow patterns.
- Voided Business Check: A voided check from your business bank account for ACH setup.
- EIN Confirmation: IRS EIN confirmation letter or SS-4 form showing your Employer Identification Number.
Supporting Documentation (May Be Requested):
- Business Entity Documents: Articles of organization, certificate of incorporation, or DBA registration.
- Business License: State or local business operating license (if applicable to your industry).
- Tax Returns: Required only for funding amounts over $150,000. Not required for smaller working capital products.
- Equipment Quote: For equipment financing applications, a quote or invoice from the equipment seller.
What You Do NOT Need
- Green card or permanent residency documentation
- Visa copy or immigration status proof
- Proof of citizenship
- Property appraisals (most working capital products)
- Collateral documentation (most working capital products)
- Business plan (not required by Bankable — your revenue tells the story)

The primary requirement is 3-6 months of business bank statements. You also need a voided business check, EIN confirmation, and basic business entity documents. No immigration documents are required.
No. You do not need to show your visa, green card, or any immigration document. Identity is verified using your SSN or ITIN. Bankable does not require immigration status documentation for funding applications.
Tax returns are required only for funding amounts over $150,000. For working capital products under that threshold, business bank statements are sufficient.
Bank statements can be uploaded as PDF files or connected digitally through Plaid secure bank linking. Digital submission is accepted — no physical documents required.
Most T visa business owners who keep organized records can complete the document gathering in 30 minutes. Your bank statements are the primary component — everything else is typically one page.
Yes. Bankable reviews your business bank statements only — not personal banking. The business account must be in the name of your business entity.
Business licenses are required only for industries where state law mandates them (contractors, food service, healthcare). Many service businesses do not require licenses. Check your state's requirements.
No. Bankable does not require a business plan. Your bank statements and revenue history are your business plan — they show what your business actually does, not what you project it will do.
