thank for the help.
I dont think I can get an investor's visa due ti the amount of money needed.
I have seen the E1 visa :
--------------------------------...
This visa is somewhat unusual as it allows the holder to work in the US, yet does not require the filing and approval of a petition to the US Citizenship and Immigration Services like most work visas do. It also does not involve a US employer. This may in rare circumstances cause problems when the holder enters the United States of America. Please consult with one of our US immigration specialists for more information concerning this issue.The most common B-1 in lieu of H-1B visa scenario involves a foreign (non-US) company having a contract or agreement with a US client or customer to perform services in the US.
This visa is for highly specialized and professional employees only. While they are in the US on this visa, they should continue to be employees of and salaried by the foreign company. The visa holder should also return to his/her regular employment with the foreign company after the project in the US has been completed.
Generally, the visa will be issued for any period of up to 12 months (14 is normally the absolute maximum). Should longer periods in the US be necessary, please contact us for more information.

But does freelancing allows me to ask for a such visa? can freelancing be considered as a "foreign company"?
