Investing in the US Without Being a US Citizen or Permanent Resident

How to do business in the US legally through EB-5 Visa that leads to obtaining a Green Card

Even if you’re not a US citizen or permanent resident, you can still do business in the US legally.

In 1990, the USA Congress created a Visa Program called EB-5. The program aimed at stimulating the economy. It was intended to encourage foreign investors to invest capital in the US and create jobs.

In 1992, Congress created the Immigrant Investor Program. This program is also called the Regional Center Program.

USCIS administers this program.

On its website, USCIS explained that this program “sets aside EB-5 visas for those who invest in commercial enterprises associated with regional centers approved by USCIS based on proposals for promoting economic growth.”

The EB-5 Immigrant Investor visa program paves the way for foreign investors to get a Green Card.

Here are a couple of things you should know if you are interested in participating in this program:

  • To qualify, a minimum investment amount is required.
  • The US government issues thousands of EB-5 visas every year.

Two ways I can help you:

  1. Find experienced Immigration Lawyers.
  2. After consulting with your lawyer and deciding on a suitable investment that qualifies for the EB-5 visa program, I and my Senior Partners can help you buy that investment.

Here are some of the questions your lawyer should answer:

  • What is the EB-5 Visas? The brief info I provided in this blog isn’t enough for you to fully understand the program and make an informed decision.
  • What does the EB-5 process look like?
  • How long does the process take?
  • What is the minimum investment I’m required to make to get this visa?
  • What other related costs do I need to be aware of throughout the process?
  • And more…

Disclaimers:

  1. The process of applying for and getting an EB-5 Visa is complex, and this blog does not intend to advise and guide you through this process.
  2. I’m not a lawyer. You need to use your own Immigration Lawyer to help you understand the requirements and the right type of investments that qualify you to get this visa.
