Common Questions

What is the EB-5 Immigrant Investor Program?

The EB-5 program allows foreign nationals to obtain a U.S. green card by making a qualifying investment in a new commercial enterprise that creates at least 10 full-time jobs for U.S. workers. The minimum investment amount depends on whether the project is in a Targeted Employment Area (TEA).

How do I choose an EB-5 immigration attorney?

Look for an attorney with specific EB-5 experience, a track record with USCIS petitions, and familiarity with your investment type (direct or regional center). Verify their bar standing, ask about their approval rates, and ensure they can explain the process clearly.

What is the difference between direct and regional center EB-5?

Direct EB-5 requires the investor to directly manage or be involved in a new commercial enterprise. Regional center EB-5 allows passive investment through an approved regional center, which can count indirect and induced jobs toward the 10-job requirement.

How long does the EB-5 process typically take?

EB-5 processing times vary significantly depending on the petition type, USCIS workload, and the investor's country of chargeability. Current processing times for I-526E petitions can range from 18 to 36 months or more. Check the processing times data above for the latest estimates.

What happens after my I-526E petition is approved?

After I-526E approval, you can apply for conditional permanent residence through adjustment of status (if in the U.S.) or consular processing (if abroad). After approximately two years as a conditional resident, you file the I-829 petition to remove conditions and obtain full permanent residence.
