Legal Question in Immigration Law in California

My partner and I (both German citizen) would like to apply for an E-2 Treaty Investor visa to build up our own company for pilot training software in California. My partner made his commercial pilot license in a US flight school and spent approx 60.000 USD in tuition fees.

We also invested about 40.000 USD in computer equipment and software. Does this count as an substantial amount or is education not eligible as an investment?

Thank you very much.

The tuition expenses will not be considered, but in determining what is a substantial amount, it needs to be proportional to what will be required for the intended business enterprise.
