Can EB-5, an American investment immigrant, be scheduled free?

The reason why EB-5 investment immigrants in the United States can be exempted from scheduling is because the new EB-5 New Deal introduced last year introduced three reserved visa channels and reserved a certain proportion of visas every year, which can be understood as the concept of "starting a new stove", so scheduling can be exempted. The reserved visa quota belongs to three special items. Even if the quota is not used up, it will be left over to the next year. If there is surplus in the second year, it will be released to other areas for further digestion. Generally speaking, you line up in your own range. In 2023, according to the EB-5 visa reservation principle of American investment immigrants, the number of reserved visas to avoid scheduling is as high as 10000!

At present, EB-5 investment immigrants in the United States are in hot application, and they can get a two-year conditional green card by investing $800,000 in regional projects approved by the Immigration Bureau. If the invested project still exists and operates normally 90 days before the expiration of two years, and indirectly creates 10 employment opportunities, investors can apply to cancel the green card conditions, thus obtaining a permanent green card. Upon the expiration of the investment period, if the investment is withdrawn as planned, the principal can be returned.

The application conditions for EB-5 investment immigrants in the United States can be described as simple, equivalent to spending money to move, and there are no hard requirements for applicants such as language, education, age and assets; The legal sources of investment funds are also very extensive, which can include assets, inheritance and gifts of spouses. Do not need to start their own business, do not need to personally participate in business management; You don't need to directly hire 10 employees, you can indirectly create jobs, and the application process doesn't need to take up a lot of time and energy; For most people who have a certain economic accumulation, they meet the application conditions.

However, the number of EB-5 places is limited after all. Judging from the legislative logic of the new EB-5 law, only new investors can use it at present, and the quota will not be squeezed by history, which means that the earlier an applicant applies, the sooner he can get a green card.
