What is the EB-5 Program?
The EB-5 program allots 10,000 visas per year for aliens and family members whose qualifying investments result in the creation or preservation of at least ten full-time jobs for U.S. workers. Three thousand of these visas are set aside for aliens who invest through EB-5 Regional Centers. The investment amount is $1 million, or $500,000 if investing in a high-unemployment area.
