Law Offices of Kravitz & Guerra, P.A. Provide EB5 Visa Services
New opportunity for foreign investors to acquire visa through business ventures.
Online, January 11, 2011 (Newswire.com) - The Law Offices of Kravitz and Guerra are announcing their new program to assist foreign investors start their new businesses in the United States in order to acquire the EB5 Visa. The EB5 Visa is available to qualified individuals seeking permanent resident status on the basis of their investment in a commercial enterprise. The amount of investment is either $500,000 or $1 million depending upon the geographical area of the investment. The investment must be in an active business that will directly employ ten full-time U.S. Citizen, permanent resident workers, or other certain authorized workers. Approximately 10,000 EB-5 green cards are available each year - a number which has never been used up.
A potential investor may invest in their own commercial enterprise, or in a commercial enterprise owned by other parties. The investor may also choose to invest in a pre-approved "Regional Center." Regional Centers are geographical areas for which the U.S. Immigration Service has determined that investments will create the necessary 10 jobs per investor, whether directly or indirectly, in the geographical area. Virtually all of the regional centers are in geographical areas where $500,000 is the required amount of investment. Most of the regional centers involve limited partnership investments for which having the rights of a limited partner is considered sufficient to make the investor not completely passive.
The major advantage investing in a regional center (as compared with a personally owned business created as an EB-5 investment) is that the investment has been pre-approved by the U.S. Immigration Service with respect to the qualifying amount of the investment and with respect to the job creation requirement.
