USA EB5 & E2
USA EB5 INVESTOR VISA
The EB5 Visa grants U.S. permanent residency in exchange for investments into government-approved projects across America. One perk of this visa is that it also offers access to education, a variety of job opportunities, and the chance to live and work in the USA.
USA E2 INVESTOR VISA
The E2 visa is an alternative to the EB5. It can be obtained by citizens of countries holding an E2 treaty with the USA. Investment must be substantial, but it scales well below current EB5 requirements. This includes options such as Grenada, and Turkey.

EB5 REGIONAL CENTER
The Regional Center Program also known as the Immigrant Investor Program requires investment of $1.8 million or a reduced $900,000 if the investment is in a Targeted Employment Area (TEA). This sets aside EB-5 visas for participants who invest in commercial enterprises associated with regional centers approved by USCIS based on proposals for promoting economic growth. In particular the investment must be “at risk” and shown to create 10 full time US jobs for two years. Many of the EB5 projects are real estate related. All such investments are packaged involving minimal investor participation.
E2 TREATY COUNTRIES
The E2 visa is a good alternative to the EB5 visa. Zitonaa Invest can help our clients get citizenship in an E2 country and then apply for E2 visas through investment in the USA. The process is fast and there’s no retrogression problem.

The US has always been a country of opportunities, attracting millions of people to the land for work, residency, and education. Such increasing demand for being a resident in the US comes in no surprise because this reasonably inviting country promises good income levels and prosperity that are better than most of the other countries and not to mention the other qualifications of holding a US passport.
Should i invest directly or trough EB-5 regional center ?
Working with an experienced regional team is less risky and there is a higher likelihood for locking in on a TEA project that requires half the EB-5 investment amount. And you don’t need to be close enough to the project site to manage daily tasks, unlike with most direct investment projects.
What is the minimum amount of investment required for EB-5 ?
The minimum amount of investment required for an EB-5 visa is $1.8 million. If the investment is made in a Targeted Employment Area, the minimum investment amount is reduced by half at $900,000
What is a "Targeted Employment Areas" ?
A targeted employment area (TEA) is a rural area or a location with a high rate of unemployment. EB-5 investors who make their investment in a TEA can enjoy the reduced investment threshold. However, not all rural areas or regions with high unemployment qualify as a targeted employment area in the EB-5 program. The designation of a TEA is adjudicated as part of an investor’s I-526 petition. An investor must, in his or her petition, demonstrate that the location of the project meets the requirements of TEA.
Will i get back EB-5 Investment back ?
EB-5 investment capital must remain “at risk” for the duration of the investment period. While the name of the requirement alludes to investing in risky projects, this is not the case. The central target of the EB-5 investment program is to strengthen the economy and creating jobs. The right investment can lead to profits and further income for the investor.
Can i work with EB-5 Visa ?
An EB-5 investor is eligible to work for any US employees after becoming a conditional permanent resident or obtaining work permits. Investors do not need to work for the regional center through which they make the investment. If investors or dependents want to work for the very EB-5 business they invest in, they should be aware that their positions may not be used to fulfill the job creation criteria.
What happen to the money invested in EB-5 visa program?
The EB-5 capital from a foreign investor is used by a US business to complete the selected project and create jobs for American citizens.
Are my family members are eligible for EB-5 Visa?
Qualified family members include the investor’s spouse and unmarried children under 21 years old. Parents, grand parents and siblings of the investor cannot be included in the EB-5 application.
Do I have to surrender my own country citizenship?
The US doesn’t require its citizens to renounce other citizenships when applying for citizenship. An EB-5 investor is eligible to apply for naturalization after obtaining and maintaining permanent residency for five years, without having to abandon the citizenship of his or her country of origin.
