PROGRAM OVERVIEW

I USA EB5 VISA LAW

The United States offers the EB-5 Immigrant Investor Program, which allows foreign nationals to obtain permanent residency (Green Card) by investing in a U.S. business that creates jobs for American workers. To qualify, applicants must invest a minimum of $1 million, or $500,000 in targeted employment areas (TEAs), which are rural or high-unemployment regions. The investment must create at least 10 full-time jobs for U.S. workers within two years. The EB- 5 visa leads to permanent residency and can eventually lead to U.S. citizenship after five years of residency. Applicants may also include their spouse and children under 21 in the application.
