To qualify for an investor visa in the United States, a foreign national must meet the requirements of the EB-5 program. This visa program requires the applicant to invest a minimum of $900,000 in a U.S. business that will create at least 10 full-time jobs.
Additionally, the applicant must demonstrate that the investment is coming from a lawful source of funds, such as an inheritance or the sale of property, and that they have a net worth of at least $1.8 million.
There are also limitations on the type of businesses that qualify for the program, and the investment must be made in a new commercial enterprise or a troubled business that is being restructured.
Furthermore, the applicant must provide evidence that they will be actively involved in the management of the business, or that they will be involved in policy-making decisions at the highest level of the company.
It is important to note that the EB-5 program has a limited number of visas available each year, and there may be waiting lists or restrictions on certain nationalities. It is advisable to consult with an immigration attorney to determine the specific requirements and potential limitations for your individual case.
