The EB-5 program offers a pathway to U.S. permanent residency through significant investment, making it essential for investors to understand the process and select the right project fully. The success of your EB-5 application heavily depends on the investment’s
compliance with program requirements and ability to create jobs.
While investors can establish their own businesses, the majority prefer projects sponsored by USCIS-designated regional centers. These centers manage EB-5 capital for specific commercial enterprises funding qualified projects. These investments must be directed toward new commercial enterprises (NCE) and result in the creation of at least 10 full-time jobs for U.S. workers.
Selecting the right EB-5 regional center and project can be challenging, yet it’s critical for a
successful outcome. To make an informed decision, consider these key questions:
1. Investor Participation: How many other EB-5 investors are involved in this project?
2. Job Creation: How are jobs created and allocated among investors?
3. Legal Compliance: Does the project comply with EB-5 and other immigration
regulations?
4. Risk Assessment: What risks are associated with this project?
5. Exit Strategy: What is the exit strategy upon receiving permanent residency?
6. Return on Investment: What are the projected financial returns?
7. Funding Sources: Will non-EB-5 funds be used, and where are they sourced from?
8. Investment Security: What safeguards exist if the I-526 petition is denied?
9. Track Record: What is the project team’s experience and legal credentials?
10. Legal Issues: Have any lawsuits or bankruptcies involved the project or regional center?
11. Economic Forecasting: What models are used to predict job creation?
