Investors Visa

INVESTORS VISA

GREEN CARD THROUGH INVESTMENT

Overview

Congress created the fifth employment-based preference (EB-5, also called green card through investment) immigrant visa category in 1990 for people who wish to immigrate to the United States through investment. In order to qualify for EB-5 visa (investors visa), the investor must invest at least one million US dollars in a new commercial enterprise and employ at least 10 full-time US workers. If the investment is to be in a targeted employment area, only five hundred thousand US dollars is required.

The New Commercial Enterprise

To qualify as an immigrant investor, the alien must invest in a new commercial enterprise. This can be done by starting a new business; by purchasing and restructuring a new business; by expanding and substantially changing the net worth or number of employees in a business; or by investing in a troubled business, so that there is a forty percent increase in the net worth or in the number of employees of the business.

Commercial enterprise means any for-profit entity formed for the ongoing conduct of lawful business may serve as a commercial enterprise. This includes sole proprietorships, partnerships, holding companies, joint ventures, corporations, business trusts, or other entities publicly or privately owned.
