As of July 28, there are only 63 days left until the U.S. investment immigration 930 policy change. Worldway is the first to speak out in the industry: the U.S. investment immigration 930 policy change will trigger two major shocks in the EB-5 program. What impacts will these two shocks have on investors? In the unpredictable investment environment, how should investors take control?
What Impacts Will the Two Major Shocks of EB-5 Have on Investors?
The two major shocks triggered by the U.S. investment immigration 930 policy change are the increase in investment amounts and changes in employment calculation methods. This means that the investment amount for U.S. investment immigration, which has been in place for 25 years, will increase from $500,000 to at least $800,000. For investors, this not only means a higher investment threshold but also increased difficulty in proving the legal source of funds. Additionally, the change in employment calculation methods will make it impossible to achieve the high employment rates that EB-5 projects once had, making it more challenging for investors to meet conditions during the I-829 stage.
Three Suggestions from Worldway to Help Investors Take Control
In the unpredictable investment environment of U.S. investment immigration, how can investors take control? Here are three suggestions from Worldway for your reference:
1. Prioritize Projects Pre-Approved by the Immigration Bureau
Worldway's U.S. immigration experts analyze that the primary strategy to respond to the 930 policy change is to act quickly by locking in projects that have been pre-approved by the Immigration Bureau. This increases the certainty of I-526 application approvals and reduces waiting times, especially in the current visa backlog era and the looming price increase of the EB-5 program, which undoubtedly allows investors to gain an advantage by acting swiftly.
2. Prioritize Projects with Guaranteed Investment, Employment, and Repayment
The EB-5 program has two fundamental risks—investment risk and employment risk. From this perspective, when choosing EB-5 projects, investors should first consider whether the project sufficiently creates jobs, the strength of the developer, the guarantees of investment and repayment, and the quality of the exit mechanism, among many other comprehensive factors.
3. Worldway's Group Purchase Helps You Seize the Last Chance Before the Policy Change
Worldway Group has launched a significant group purchase event in the EB-5 industry for the first time in 25 years, allowing investors to benefit from group purchase discounts. More importantly, the two U.S. immigration projects participating in this group purchase—DLJ Four Seasons Hotel Resort Project (a project with I-526 sample approval from the DLJ trillion fund) and Pennsylvania Turnpike Project Phase III (a project with government repayment commitments)—have both been pre-approved by the U.S. Immigration Bureau and are backed by strong developers or economic entities, with sufficient job creation and good exit mechanisms.
