Investment

The Immigration Act of 1990 (“IMMACT 90″) helped create the Immigrant Investor Program as the fifth preference category for employment-based immigration, also referred to as EB-5. This was the first time a category expressly granted the admission of immigrant investors as lawful permanent residents (LPR’s) and presently is the only such category to do so. The EB-5 Immigrant Investor Program is accessible to those immigrants who have invested, or are in the process of investing at least $1 million in a new commercial enterprise employing at least 10 full-time U.S. workers. Individuals who invest in a “targeted employment area” (TEA), however, only have to invest a minimum of $500,000. Read more…
