Why United States

For non US nationals, the EB-5 programme offers a direct, investment based route to US permanent residency.

It is aimed at those who want to invest in the US economy and secure a Green Card for themselves and their family.

About the programme

The EB-5 Investor Visa allows foreign nationals and their families to become US permanent residents by making a qualifying investment in a US business that creates jobs.

It is a direct route to a Green Card, without the need for an employer sponsor. This route is intended for non US nationals.

The benefits

What this programme offers you and your family in practice.

A direct, investment based route to a US Green Card

The right to live and work anywhere in the US

Residency for your spouse and children under 21

A pathway to US citizenship over time

No employer sponsor required

Investment into job creating US enterprises

How to qualify

There is usually more than one route. Remy will confirm which fits your goals and the current rules before you commit.

Qualifying investment

A qualifying investment, from $800,000 in a targeted employment area, into a US enterprise that creates at least ten full time jobs. The investment must be maintained through the conditional residency period.

Why people choose United States

The EB-5 route is one of the most direct ways for a non US national to obtain a US Green Card, tied to a qualifying investment rather than an employer.

It grants permanent residency for the whole family, with the right to live and work anywhere in the US and a route to citizenship over time.

Frequently asked questions

Who is eligible for the United States programme?
Applicants generally need to be over 18, hold a clean criminal record, be in good health, and show that the funds used come from a legal source. All applications are subject to government due diligence.
Can I include my family in the application?
Yes, your spouse and unmarried children under 21. Remy can confirm exactly who qualifies in your case.
What are the stay requirements?
Residency programmes vary. This programme has a low or no mandatory minimum stay to keep your status, though requirements apply if you later pursue citizenship.
What are the tax implications?
Host countries often have a favourable local tax regime, but what that means for you depends on your own citizenship and tax residency. US citizens in particular remain taxed on worldwide income regardless of any other passport held. This is exactly the kind of thing to map out with Remy, alongside independent tax advice.
