US EB-5 is an employment based program visa designed to target overseas investors prepared to infuse funds into either establishing a commercially viable business (which later demands active participation in day to day proceedings of commercial enterprise), or parking them into designated venues. The willing investors are granted conditional green card for tenure of two years within which they must fulfill certain criteria related to fulfillment of investments and employment generation.

After receiving an approval on I-485 application or after entry into the US on a EB-5 immigrant visa, the EB-5 investor and permitted family members will be granted conditional permanent residence for a two-year period.

On fulfillment of the conditions within the two year period, the investing individual can place a request (through I-829) for removal of conditions on Green Card.

The Investments in EB-5

The intended investments must be strictly exposed to the market competition and must also have an element of uncertainty in them. Investing individual must have investment ready funds which can be allocated into any of the following channels, i.e. individual and regional center.

The investment in the regional center concept is one time investment while in case of an individual scheme, the funds can be invested in phased manner but at time of filing of I-829, investor must substantiate fulfillment of planned and projected investment amount.
