EB-5 Immigrant Investor Program

EB-5 Immigrant Investor Program

Overview of the U.S. EB-5 Immigrant Visa

  • EB-5 U.S. Immigrant Investor Visa is a U.S. residency-by-investment program approved by the U.S. Congress in 1990, designed for foreign investors seeking green cards for their entire family.
  • By investing a minimum of USD 800,000 (approximately VND 19 billion) in a targeted employment area and creating 10 full-time jobs for U.S. workers, the investor, along with their spouse and unmarried children under 21, will be granted green cards and enjoy full U.S. permanent resident benefits.
  • The program offers two investment options: direct investment and investment through a Regional Center. Among these, investment through a Regional Center provides significant advantages, making it easier to meet program requirements and is the primary choice for most investors.
  • Currently, while there are several U.S. residency-by-investment programs, the EB-5 Regional Center program is the most straightforward, secure, and officially recognized path to obtaining a U.S. green card. It ensures a safe route for your U.S. immigration plan as well as the potential recovery of your investment capital.

Benefits of the U.S. EB-5 Immigrant Visa

  • Granted U.S. Green Cards for the entire family.
  • Enjoy full benefits equivalent to those of U.S. citizens. Investors and their family members have the right to live, study, and work anywhere in the United States.
  • Children are entitled to free education at public schools (from elementary to high school, with university tuition fees lower than those for international students) and have access to programs and majors reserved for U.S. permanent residents and citizens.
  • Opportunity to apply for U.S. citizenship upon meeting eligibility requirements.
  • After obtaining U.S. citizenship, the investor’s family can travel freely to 186 countries worldwide without a visa or with only an electronic visa.
  • Unlimited entry and exit from the United States.
