EB-5 Investment Immigration Visa

 

The EB-5 Investment Immigration Program allows financially successful foreign nationals to obtain lawful permanent resident status (i.e., a green card) in the United States simply by investing in an American business. Specifically, the immigration applicant must invest the required amount of money in a commercial enterprise or government-designated “regional center” in the United States.  If that commercial enterprise or regional center is able to create or preserve at least 10 full-time jobs for U.S. workers within the required time period, then the applicant (as well as the applicant’s spouse and unmarried children below the age of 21) will be granted lawful permanent resident status in the United States under the EB-5 program. 

 

The required investment amount is US$500,000 for an investment in a commercial enterprise or regional center that is located in a “targeted employment area” (a rural area or an area with unusually high unemployment) or US$1,000,000 for an investment in a commercial enterprise or regional center that is not located in a targeted employment area.

 

For those fortunate enough to have the required funds, the EB-5 investment immigration program is an excellent way to obtain permanent resident status in the United States.  The EB-5 application process is complex and so every EB-5 applicant should find a skilled attorney to help him or her navigate through the process.  Let the skilled immigration professionals of Law Offices of Nicholas Lowry put their knowledge to work for you!  If you have any questions about the EB-5 immigration program, you can feel free to contact us at info@nlowrylaw.com or 312-469-0198.
