Investor Journey
Documenting the Lawful Source of Funds
One of the most heavily scrutinized areas of an EB-5 petition by USCIS is tracing the investment capital to a lawful source. The documentation required varies heavily based on your home country, currency controls, and how the wealth was accumulated (e.g., cryptocurrency, real estate, inheritance).
Note: Finding an attorney familiar with your home country's financial systems and currency controls is often a critical factor in a smooth Source of Funds application.
