EB-5

New Asset and First Mortgage Secured EB-5 Investment Projects

The Investor Permanent Resident “Green Card” Program (EB-5 immigrant visa) is under-utilized in the US. Currently the US Government has allocated 10,000 EB-5 visas annually, and depending on the location of the investment, there is either a USD $1,000,000, or USD $500,000 capital investment requirement. The investment in the Florida Overseas Investment Regional Center is USD $500,000. The normal visa processing time is 14 to 18 months

The advantages of the EB-5 Program are:

  • No English language requirement
  • No age restriction
  • No minimum education requirement
  • No management or business experience requirement
  • Net worth requirement of $1,000,000 (excluding primary residence) or high annual income
  • Investment capital can originate from gift, loan, property sale, business income, or any lawful source
  • May apply for US citizenship after at least 5 years of residency
  • Live, work or retire anywhere in the United States
