Overview of Visa Process

The rules governing the EB5 program are very complex and unlike any other Green Card program offered by the USCIS. In simplest terms, however, the process of obtaining permanent resident status through this program may be broken down into the three basic steps. 

Step #1   
File the Form I-526 Petition for Entrepreneur with the USCIS.
Sample I-526 Form   

Step #2   
Obtain EB-5 immigrant visa at U.S. Embassy after completion of interview with Consular Officer.  Sample Visa Stamp  

Step #3   
Enter the United States and present the immigrant visa at the airport to obtain lawful permanent resident ("Green Card") status.  

Completing each of these steps, however, requires careful preparation, planning and execution by the Immigrant, the EB5 visa lawyer and the DC Regional Center program manager.  Sample NVC Letter  

With the support of an experienced EB5 team, the immigrant will be skillfully guided in the process of collecting the required "lawful source of funds" documents, as well as required certificates (police, medical, birth and marriage).
