The EB-5 immigrant investor visa program is a jobs creation program in the United States designed to attract foreign investment. It offers an opportunity for foreign nationals to achieve permanent residence (a green card) in the United States for themselves and their family if they make an investment of at least $800,000 with an approved EB-5 regional center.
In order to qualify for this immigration benefit, EB-5 petitioners must prove that their investment created at least 10 new full-time jobs for American workers.
