U.S. permanent resident (“green card”) status based on EB-5 eligibility is available to certain investors, either alone or coming with their spouse and unmarried children. Eligible aliens are those who have invested — or are actively in the process of investing — the required amount of capital into a new commercial enterprise that they have established or a government approved Regional Center. They must further demonstrate that this investment will benefit the United States economy and create the requisite number of full-time jobs for qualified persons within the United States. In this informative powerpoint, immigration attorneys Murali Bashyam and Ame Coats describe the EB-5 program, the various investments that can be made, and the process for obtaining permanent residency in the US through investment.
