The EB-5 program is a U.S. immigration initiative that allows foreign investors to obtain a Green Card by investing in American businesses. To qualify, an investor must invest a minimum of $1 million, or $500,000 in a targeted employment area, which is typically a rural or high-unemployment area. The investment must create or preserve at least ten full-time jobs for U.S. workers. This program aims to stimulate the U.S. economy through job creation and capital investment. Investors can apply for permanent residency after their investment meets the program's requirements, making it an attractive option for those seeking to live and work in the United States.
