Come learn about the EB-5 investor visa program.   Exclusive Seminar For Professionals from all Visas and Investment Backgrounds.   WHAT IS EB-5 Green Card  The EB-5 immigrant investor visa allows you and your family to obtain a green card and live and work freely in the United States through a qualifying minimum investment of $500,000.   The EB-5 investor visa program enables foreigners who make an investment in a U.S. business that creates 10 jobs for U.S. workers to obtain lawful permanent resident status, and eventually U.S. citizenship, if desired. The investment can lead to a green card for the investor to permanently live and work anywhere in the United States with their spouse and unmarried children under the age of 21. New Laws being enforced from Nov 21:     The minimum standard EB-5 investment will increase to $1.8 million and the minimum Targeted Employment Area (TEA) investment to $900,000. USCIS will have the exclusive authority to designate TEAs based on a new methodology that could limit urban development projects.   EB-5 petitioners will retain their original place in the green card queue if circumstances beyond their control – such as a material change in a project business plan – require them to file a new petition.     Through its conferences and seminars EB5GC.com shall bridge the gap and bring more transparency in the process and connect Investors with American companies that work on such projects which enable investment for return and permanent residency (Green Card).

While those visa options can usually result in a faster entry to the United States, they are all nonimmigrant visas and require renewals every few years, which may require additional investment or documentation from the applicant. In comparison, the EB-5 visa is an immigrant visa which helps Indian investors get a conditional green card within 2-3 years after investing. EB-5 investors are eligible to get their permanent green cards and their  money back after completing the 2 years of conditional residency. The total process takes about 5 years.As most H-1B holders are well aware, the EB-2 preference category is severely backlogged for Indian applicants, as are many of the other employment-based categories. For many H-1B visa holders with EB-2 employer sponsorship, the EB-5 preference category may present a faster option as there is currently no backlog for Indian applicants.  However, due to the increasing popularity of the program, this category will likely become backlogged in the future.   OFFICIAL USCIS WEB-LINK FOR EB-5 www.uscis.gov/eb-5     PANELIST   EB5 Success Story - Ishaan Khanna   Heartbroken after getting rejected for his H-1B visa application and losing his Associate Product Manager position at a top tech company in Hollywood, Ishaan utilized the EB-5 visa program and apply for his Green Card. After nearly 18 months of waiting Ishaan was able to get his conditional green approved and he has since returned to the US and wants to share his EB-5 journey to help other investors make smart investment and immigration decisions.
