EB-5 Program Summary

A Green Card or Permanent Residency gives the holder the right to live and work anywhere in the US. There are many visa categories. Some allow you to apply for a green card after you have been in the USA for a specific period but most do not. The EB5 visa is unusual in that it provides you with a green card at the outset. When you emigrate, you do so knowing that you and your immediate family have Permanent Residency. You may apply for citizenship after five years.

Work or retire, the choice is yours.
The current legislation enables EB5 Regional Center investors to retire to the USA and provides families (parents and children under 21) with immigration security, eliminating the need and worry of reapplying, as with most other visa categories. It also provides the flexibility to live anywhere, take any job, own and operate any business and to change employment without restrictions.

The 2003 Regional Center investment legislation was introduced as a Pilot Program, which operates for five years and is due to terminate in September 2008. We are lobbying for an indefinite extension, without which retirement and permanent US residency will no longer be available to many people.
