Why EB-5?
What is the EB-5 Program?
The EB-5 Visa Program, established in 1990 by the U.S. Congress, provides foreign investors with a pathway to U.S. permanent residency (Green Card) through qualifying investments in U.S. businesses. By making an investment that generates job opportunities for American workers, investors can obtain the benefits of U.S. residency for themselves and their families.
Investment Requirements
To qualify for the EB-5 program, investors must meet the following criteria:
Investment Minimum:
A minimum investment of $800,000 is required in a Targeted Employment Area (TEA), while the threshold is $1.05 million for non-TEAs.
Capital Sourcing:
Investors must provide documentation proving their capital is legally sourced.
Job Creation:
The investment must create at least 10 full-time jobs for U.S. workers within two years of the investment.
Who Can Apply?
The EB-5 program is open to any foreign national who meets the specified investment and job creation criteria established by the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS). This eligibility extends to spouses and unmarried children under 21, allowing families to embark on this journey together.
