According to comprehensive news from WorldWay Immigration: As of 2014 year-end, according to official data from the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services, the number of approved U.S. investment immigration regional centers under the EB-5 program has increased to 711, and the rapid growth is astonishing. In the face of the surge in U.S. EB-5 investment immigration projects, how can one identify the traps? WorldWay Immigration experts remind investors: safety first, first investigate the qualifications of the project party, and then conduct on-site inspections of specific projects.

 

Investigating the qualifications of the project party or regional center

If the immigration intermediary has limited professionalism, it is very easy to have information asymmetry regarding domestic and foreign investment immigration. Coupled with the recent explosive growth in the number of regional centers, investors often feel very confused when faced with projects that are overly praised by some immigration intermediaries. WorldWay Immigration experts suggest that investors should not rush to choose projects; investigating the project party is not only important but also crucial. When investigating the project party, focus on whether the project party holds a regional center license and understand how many years of history that regional center has. According to the current approval cycle for green cards by the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services, from I-526 to I-829, a regional center with less than 6-8 years of history can basically be eliminated from the candidate list. By using this standard for screening, the number of regional centers available for selection can be reduced from over 500 to a smaller range.

 

On-site inspection of the project is very important

After the first step of investigating the project party, the number of available EB-5 projects in the market can be greatly reduced. For the selection of specific projects, WorldWay Immigration has conducted multiple on-site inspections of U.S. investment immigration projects to convey the most authentic situation of the projects to investors. WorldWay Immigration experts explain that the selection and research of U.S. investment immigration EB-5 projects can better help investors make rational choices.

 

Pay attention to understanding the regional center and project party

WorldWay Immigration experts point out that if you want to further reduce risks, investors should also pay attention to the history of the regional center and the number of approved green cards, as this mainly reflects its experience in dealing with the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services and its ability to adapt to changes in U.S. immigration policies. If the regional center is not the project party, then the situation of the project party must be investigated, and this situation can be more complex. According to the EB-5 projects being promoted in the market, in most cases, the project party is likely to be a real estate company or a fund company. If the project party is a real estate company, investors should first investigate the company's corporate strength and its past participation in EB-5 projects. As for regional centers established by fund companies, investors need to understand the relationship between that company and the project party, developers, banks, etc. Because investors first sign a contract with the regional center, and then the regional center signs a loan contract with the project party, there are many legal terms and details involved.

 

The number of U.S. investment immigration projects is large and mixed, requiring scientific evaluation and professional research. A clearer understanding of the projects can help avoid unnecessary risks. WorldWay Immigration has selected hot-selling projects with prestigious positions.
