Foreign nationals can get an EB-5 visa if they can invest a minimum of $500,000 into a U.S. new commercial enterprise that creates 10 full-time jobs for American workers.

Here are the steps to getting an EB-5 visa:1. Find an EB-5 project that fulfills all the program requirements and suits your risk tolerance level. There are hundreds of projects to chose from so conduct thorough due diligence as not all projects are reputable. Visit our regional center page to get started.2. Build your team of EB-5 professionals. You’ll need a regional center team, an immigration attorney and possibly a securities law attorney.3. Make your capital investment into the project and file your I-526 Petition. Whether you’ll need to invest $1 million or $500,000 depends on if you invest in a targeted employment area (TEA). TEA are rural or high unemployment areas and investors who chose projects located in them may qualify for the lower minimum investment amount.4. Attain your two-year conditional permanent residency. Once an investor receives I-526 Petition approval, they may receive a visa when one becomes available.5. Prove your investment was sustained and the requisite number of jobs were created and file your I-829 Petition to remove the conditions on your lawful permanent residency.6. Qualify for U.S. citizenship five years after receiving conditional permanent residency.For more in depth information about a particular step, send us a message.[formidable id="11" title="1"]
