Overview

EB-5 grants permanent residence to investors who place capital at risk in a new commercial enterprise and create qualifying jobs.
Choose between Regional Center (pooled, indirect jobs count) or Direct (own business, direct jobs only).

Investment Options

Regional Center

Indirect & induced jobs count via economic models; lower operational burden; project due diligence is critical.

Direct

Invest in your own enterprise; must create and document 10 direct W-2 jobs per investor.

Process Timeline

1) Select & Diligence: Choose RC/Direct project; verify TEA status, business plan, and risk.

2) Invest & File: Transfer capital; file I-526E (RC) or I-526 (Direct) with lawful source of funds.

3) Visa/Adjustment: Consular processing (DS-260) or file I-485 if in the U.S.; receive conditional Green Cards.

4) Remove Conditions: File I-829 after job creation to receive permanent Green Cards.

Key Considerations

  • Lawful source & path of funds documentation.
  • Job creation methodology (direct/indirect).
  • Project risk, exit strategy, and return timelines.
  • Visa set-aside categories may reduce wait times.
