EB5 United

The EB-5 Program is a U.S. immigration category established by Congress in 1990 to facilitate foreign investment and job creation. It is administered by U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) under the Immigration and Nationality Act.

While often viewed as an immigration pathway, EB-5 also functions as a structured investment framework governed by immigration law, securities regulations, and Project-level ex*****on. Our latest article outlines how the Program works from a legal, capital, and compliance perspective.

Understanding how the EB-5 Program works requires examining four key pillars:

1. Foundations
• Legal Framework
• Core Parameters
• Direct vs Regional Center

2. Visa & Process
• Visa Set-Asides & Backlog
• Rural Priority Processing
• Immigration Process

3. Capital Flow
• Capital Structure & Flow
• Capital Stack & Risk
• Escrow & Deployment
• Source & Path of Funds

4. Compliance & Risk
• Compliance & Oversight
• Securities Law
• Principal Risks
• Due Diligence

Since its inception in 1990, the EB-5 Program has offered a clear proposition: invest in a U.S. enterprise and pursue Permanent Residency for you and your family. Over the decades, thousands have successfully secured their Green Card through this pathway.

At its core, the EB-5 Program exists to stimulate U.S. economic growth by directing foreign capital into job-creating enterprises. To meet that goal, every EB-5 investment must satisfy strict legal, economic, and timing requirements. Navigating this framework without proper due diligence is one of the most common and costly mistakes investors make.
