Frequently asked questions about American investment immigrants.

1. Is there a quota for American investment immigrants? How many places? Will there be a queue?

A: There are 1 10,000 places for investment immigrants. Among them, 3,000 places are designated for 500,000 regional center investment projects. However, if 3,000 places in the 500,000 regional center investment projects are not enough, unused ones can be used. At present, there should be no shortage of queues for American investment immigrants. However, the queue is likely to occur on 20 14, and customers who intend to apply for investment immigration in the United States need to hurry.

2. How many regional centers have been approved by USCIS?

A: There are about 250 now.

What is the relationship between investing in regional centers and investing in immigration projects?

A: Investment immigration projects are generally projects under regional centers. Sometimes a regional center has several investment immigration projects.

Some people say that you can only apply for investment immigration if you invest in a specific area. Is this statement correct?

A: This statement is not accurate. If you invest in a specific area, you can apply for $500,000 to invest in immigration. If you invest in a project outside a specific area, the investment is one million dollars, not half a million dollars.

5. What is the specific area? Who decides which places are specific areas?

A: The official name of a specific area is the target employment area. These areas are decided by the governor where the investment project is located according to the provisions of laws and regulations. Generally speaking, the location of 500,000 investment projects in the regional center for investment immigrants currently belongs to the target employment area.

6. What are the main criteria for the governor of the investment project to decide whether a region belongs to a specific region?

A: It mainly depends on the employment rate and average population density in this area. Only places with high unemployment rate (low employment rate) and low average population density are designated as target employment areas.

7. When must the target employment area be determined?

A: Specific investors must do it when they start investing or submit an I-526 immigration application. If the investment funds have been transferred to the bank supervision account, the target employment area will be determined when applying for immigration.

8. What if the Immigration Bureau disagrees with the target employment area/high unemployment area determined by the state government? A: The Immigration Bureau has no right to question or deny the target employment area/high unemployment area determined by the state government.
