Why is USA a popular investment location?
The United States of America, U.S. for short, is a country made up of 50 states covering the majority of North America. It is the world’s third-largest country in terms of size.
From dry deserts and dense wilderness to large mountain ranges and tropical beaches, the U.S. has one of the most varied landscapes of any country.
Aside from the scenery, the U.S. is known as the ‘Land of Opportunity’ due to the opportunities the country provides for people to achieve personal and professional success.
About the USA Residency by Investment programme.
In 1990, U.S. Congress introduced the EB-5 Immigration Investor Visa to stimulate the country’s economy.
The EB-5 Investor Visa allows foreign nationals and their families to become permanent residents in the U.S. and a route to a Green Card by investing in American businesses that create new jobs. Investments start at $1,050,000, or $800,000, if investing in a Targeted Employment Area (TEA).
The programme is highly successful, granting applicants the chance to live, work and study anywhere in the U.S. It also provides a route to U.S. citizenship after five years.
How to obtain Residency in the USA
Live the American Dream
A minimum investment of $1,050,000 is required. This is reduced to $800,000 if the investment is in a designated Targeted Employment Area (TEA).
Applicants can invest in a business directly or through ‘Regional Centers’, which are investment projects approved by the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS).
Other Criteria for the investment to be considered eligible for the EB-5 application include the following:
The investment must create at least 10 permanent full-time jobs for qualified U.S. workers in two years (viewed from the date the applicant receives the conditional residency permit).
The investment must be considered ‘at-risk’, meaning the investor cannot receive any guarantees or contractual rights for repayment.
Key Benefit of Residency in the USA
The EB-5 Immigration Investor Visa is a highly successful programme introduced by U.S. Congress in 1990 to stimulate economic growth through foreign investments.
It allows foreign investors and their families a route to securing a Green Card and permanent residency in the U.S. This grants the right to live, work and study in the country, as well as leave and enter freely without a visa.
Qualifying children of the investor have the opportunity to enrol in U.S. schools, with access to the same education and higher education as citizens. This includes the possibility of lower university tuition compared to international students.
EB-5 Visa holders also have the option to apply for U.S. citizenship in as little as five years.
