What are the characteristics of American investment immigrants?

Feature 1: Projects that have been pre-approved by the US Immigration Bureau are sought after.

If a project is pre-approved by the US Immigration Service in the I-924 stage, the US Immigration Service will follow up in the following stages: I-526 and I-829, provided that the project documents are not falsified or there are no objective errors.

Obviously, this kind of project that has been pre-approved by the US Immigration Bureau will greatly reduce the risk of immigration application and shorten the time for the US Immigration Bureau to review documents. Especially in the case that 20 18 may be scheduled and the price will increase, the projects that have been pre-approved by the US Immigration Bureau will be highly sought after.

Feature 2: EB-5 projects with supervised accounts are more popular.

According to the survey, the EB-5 project with supervision account for American investment immigrants has been warmly welcomed by investors. Although American immigration law stipulates that EB-5 investment is risky investment, EB-5 Act allows investors to invest in security funds before I-526 application is approved. The specific way is to set up an EB-5 fund supervision account, and investors will remit the investment funds into the supervision account before submitting the immigration application. The regulatory agreement must stipulate that the investor's I-526 application is approved before the investment funds can be released. If the I-526 application is rejected, a full refund is required.

Feature 3: Seize the opportunity and give priority to quality projects.

The situation of emigrating to the United States is not optimistic. Investors must seize the opportunity and give priority to quality projects. Since the establishment of 1990, the investment amount of EB-5 investment immigrants in the United States has been maintained at the standard of 500,000 US dollars, and the super cost performance is obvious. With the gradual recovery of American economy in recent years and the improvement of investment threshold in other immigrant countries, rumors about the price increase of American investment immigration plan are endless in the past two years.

There is no doubt about the gold content of American investment immigrants in all immigrant countries, so investors must master the latest changes of American investment immigrants and make decisions in advance in order to get the American green card.

First, the employment advantage.

With a green card, there will be no restrictions on working in America. In order to protect the interests of Americans, many jobs in the United States (high-tech, biochemical, military and other research, production, security work) are not open to foreigners, even if foreigners have corresponding knowledge and expertise. This situation makes international students in an extremely unequal competitive situation with American students when they look for jobs after graduating from college. Green card holders can turn this "disadvantage" into "advantage".

If you really can't find a job, the US government also has a special agency to find jobs for our people free of charge. Green card holders can get free basic employment skills (such as computer and English) training as long as they register in this department. At the same time, the organization will also provide corresponding job opportunities according to the skills, expertise and interests of the registrant.

Second, the tuition advantage.

Tuition is an expensive investment for students studying in the United States. Students who get a green card can attend all public primary and secondary schools in the United States for free before 18 years old. At university, students who immigrate to the United States can enjoy the same tuition as local students. Take the University of California at Berkeley as an example. Local students only need more than $65,438+00,000 for one-year undergraduate tuition, while international students need to pay $36,000.

In addition, green card holders above 18 can apply for various kinds of student loans after getting a green card. Take the excellent private universities in the United States as an example, the annual tuition fee is as high as 30 thousand dollars; If a green card holder wants to study for a master's degree for two years, he can probably apply for a student loan of 60,000 to 70,000 dollars. In case you can't find a job after graduation, the loan can be paid off temporarily and paid off in years after you find a job. Usually you only need to pay one tenth of your salary every month to repay the loan.

Third, the advantages of admission and scholarship

After having an American green card, in addition to attending public primary and secondary schools, the chances of entering a top university in the university application stage will be greater. Only 65,438+00% of the places in the top 20 universities in the United States will be reserved for international students (including China students). Not only that, quite a few popular majors have high requirements when recruiting international students. After having a green card in the United States, children can enjoy the same admission treatment as American children.

For China students who are interested in applying for American university scholarships, they can only compete with outstanding students from all over the world for very limited scholarship places open to foreigners. But for students with green cards, the scope of scholarships they can enjoy far exceeds the scope that a foreign student can apply for. Because many scholarship institutions in the United States limit scholarships to "Americans." Therefore, after immigrating to the United States, children are far more likely to apply for scholarships than overseas students.

Fourth, retirement benefits.

Green card holders who have paid taxes for 10 years can receive a pension from the US federal government for life after retirement (usually 65 years old) ($65,438+$0,000 ~ $65,438+$0,200 per month). For many immigrants, the number of years of receiving a pension is more than the number of years of paying taxes. In addition, green card holders can apply for buying apartments for low-income elderly people after retirement. You can buy a house subsidized by your country in the United States at about 35% of the market price.
