EB-5 Program Overview

EB-5 Immigrant Investor Program

The EB-5 Immigrant Investor Program was established by Congress in 1990 to promote economic growth in the United States. This investor visa permits applicants to obtain permanent residency by investing in job-creating enterprises — without requiring education credentials, employment offers, or sponsorship.

Investment Thresholds

Investment Requirements

$800K

Minimum Investment

Recent Legislation

EB-5 Reform & Integrity Act of 2022

President Biden signed updated EB-5 regulations on March 15, 2022, introducing new investment rules.

The legislation established the $800,000 minimum for "high unemployment areas and rural area projects."

Rural projects received enhanced incentives compared to previously designated Target Employment Areas (TEA).
