Coming Home to USA!

The U.S. congress created the EB-5 immigrant investors visa program in 1990 to attract foreign investment capital to the U.S. to bolster the creation of domestic jobs.

In order to entice investors, the investors are granted conditional permanent residency status (generally know as Green Cards), which become unconditional if the required ten domestic jobs are created and maintained through the conditional residency period.

EB-5 Investment criterion, conditions and requirements:

• The minimum investment sum requirement of the EB-5 Program is $ 500,000 if the business is located in a “Targeted Employment Area” (defined as a locality with more than 150% of the national unemployment rate)
• For any other business located in normal employment areas, the investment sum for the EB-5 program is $ 1,000,000.
• The invested equity capital is “at-risk” prior to the removal of the immigrant conditions.
• Positive personal due diligence (criminal check- up etc.) of investor, spouse and dependents.
• Source of funds documentation is required.
• The investor must have a net worth (or joint net worth with the investors spouse) of at least
  $ 1,000,000 (excluding the equity value of their residences); or the investor had an annual gross income in each of the last two years of at least $ 200,000, and has expected gross income in the current year of at least $ 200,000 (or joint annual gross income with spouse of $ 300,000).
• The EB-5 Program grants the investor, his/her spouse and all unmarried dependent children up to the age of 21 years, the permanent residency in the United States.
  Citizenship application is possible earliest 5 years after the initial conditional green card is granted.
