According to statistics from media reports, in recent years, Puerto Rico's tax incentive policies have attracted 250 wealthy Americans with assets of over $1 million to relocate to Puerto Rico, including several billionaires.

Since 2012, in order to attract capital inflows, Puerto Rico has implemented significant reductions in personal income tax, capital gains tax, and corporate tax. Long-term residents of Puerto Rico enjoy many tax benefits, such as exemption from "global income reporting" and the absence of "estate tax." It is precisely because of these tax advantages that Puerto Rico has become a globally renowned and secure tax haven, attracting entrepreneurs from around the world to invest and start businesses there. This provides a way for entrepreneurs to avoid the notorious U.S. Internal Revenue Service (IRS) without having to renounce their U.S. citizenship. Many wealthy Americans, U.S. financial institutions, and Fortune 500 companies have registered and operated in Puerto Rico, making it a famous commercial and tourist destination in the United States.

Puerto Rican authorities hope that these incentives will encourage wealthy individuals and companies to relocate, bring in much-needed capital, and create job opportunities. For this reason, the Puerto Rico EB-5 project, which is committed to developing the local economy and creating jobs, has become increasingly popular among Chinese investors.

Currently, the hot-selling DLJ Four Seasons Hotel and Resort project promoted by Worldway is located in the tax haven of Puerto Rico. The project is managed by the multi-billion dollar real estate fund DLJ and co-invested by two major shareholders of the Four Seasons Hotel Group, Bill Gates and the Saudi Prince. The global luxury brand Four Seasons Hotel Group has stated its intention to make this hotel a leader in the Caribbean hotel market.

In addition, the project's projected job creation is 1.4 times the requirement set by the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS), and EB-5 funds hold a first-priority mortgage on project assets, ensuring investors have first-priority repayment rights. Especially with the upcoming September 30th U.S. investment immigration policy changes and potential price increases, this project's I-526 has already received exemplar approval from USCIS and is protected by the "grandfather clause," making it immune to the policy changes and price hikes. It has been successfully fast-tracked ahead of the September 30th deadline and is being aggressively sought after by groups of investors. To participate in the group purchase and secure the final spots for this premium project (group purchase ends September 30), please call 400-138-2929.
