EB5 

The EB-5 Program was created to stimulate the U.S. economy through job creation and capital investment by foreign investors.

 

The employment-based fifth preference visa is a way for investors to obtain permanent residency in the US. Under this program, investors (and spouses and unmarried children under 21) are eligible to apply for a Green Card if they:

 

• Make the necessary investment in a commercial enterprise in the United States; and

 

• Plan to create or preserve 10 permanent full-time jobs for qualified U.S. workers.

 

Currently, the minimum investment is $1,000,000.00 (or $500,000.00 for targeted employment areas).
