Minimum Investment Amount Expected to Increase for US EB-5 Visa Program

Business persons, entrepreneurs, and investors wishing to settle in the USA by way of US EB-5 Investor Visa program may have to spend more. As per the expected changes from the US department of homeland security (DHS), the minimum investment may be increased from $500,000 to $1.35 million for approved regional centers and from $ 1 million to $ 1.8 million for direct investment.

The minimum investment amount has been increased by $850,000 for approved regional centers and by $800,000 in case of direct investment. It comes as a big hiccup for foreign nationals who are planning to make US their second home.

The proposed changes will be under review for a period of 90 days. This is the last chance for you in case you want to save money for becoming a resident of United States.

The US EB-5 visa program has been one of the most popular and preferred pathways for becoming a permanent resident of United States. By making a minimum investment and creating permanent full time jobs, a foreign national can settle in US permanently.

The path for obtaining US green card is comparatively easy when compared to others. A business person or investor has to invest in any of the regional centers that are approved by the government of America. These investors contribute towards American economy and in return they get green card for their family.

Some of the salient features of the US EB-5 visa program include:
 No age limit
·       IELTS or knowledge of English language not necessary
·        No prior management experience required
·        No requirement for active participation
·        No educational requirement

Once the investor and his or her family obtain the green card, they enjoy various economic and social benefits, including medical care, world-class education and much more.

The EB-5 program was started by US with the aim to provide fresh capital to US economy and create employment in the country.

Shifting your business and / or your family to another country is not easy. There are various legal hassles involved, something which is not easy to overcome by every person.
