At the beginning of the Year of the Rooster in 2017, Worldway Immigration Group was the first in the industry to propose the concept and theme of the '2017 Year of US Investment.' By highlighting that 2017 would offer an optimal historical opportunity for US investment, the initiative garnered significant attention from numerous domestic media outlets and journalists. Major platforms including Sina, China.com, Sohu, Economic Daily, and China Economic Net covered the story, making it a focal point of the industry.

China's Implementation of CRS vs. Trump's Tax Cut Policy
Amid the environment of Federal Reserve interest rate hikes, rapid appreciation of the US dollar, and the depreciation of the RMB, increasing holdings of US dollar assets represents an excellent opportunity for high-net-worth individuals to hedge against exchange rate volatility and achieve wealth preservation and appreciation.
The highly anticipated Common Reporting Standard (CRS) also began implementation in China in 2017. Since the United States has not joined the CRS, it has become a premier destination for global tax compliance and CRS risk avoidance.
More importantly, US President Trump has planned significant tax cuts and advocated for the repeal of the estate tax. These relaxed tax policies have positioned the United States as an emerging 'tax haven.' For high-net-worth individuals, investing in the United States in 2017 is an ideal time for rational personal wealth planning.
Trump's New Policies Attract Global Capital to the United States
Domestically, since taking office, President Trump has promoted various economic stimulus policies, prompting global capital to flow into the United States for investment. Examples include SoftBank of Japan agreeing to invest $50 billion in the US, Jack Ma pledging to create 1 million new jobs in the US, and Foxconn Chairman Terry Gou considering the construction of a display panel factory in the US with a total investment exceeding $7 billion.
The influx of such major capital not only demonstrates the robust economic strength of the United States and its attractive investment returns and investor-friendly policies, but also reflects investor confidence in the US market in 2017.
The Final Window of Opportunity for EB-5 Investment Immigration
As a personal investment vehicle, the US EB-5 investment immigration program is a vital tool. Currently, an investment of only $500,000 can help investors achieve their goals of investing in the US and diversifying assets, while also securing green cards for their entire family.
However, this cost-effective investment channel may face significant changes in 2017. The current EB-5 Regional Center program is set to continue until April 28, 2017, and faces potential changes such as an increase in the minimum investment to $1.35 million, revisions to Targeted Employment Area (TEA) designations, or even potential termination.
Now is the prime period for investors to take advantage of the low $500,000 threshold for US immigration. Therefore, Worldway Immigration Group has proposed the concept of 2017 being the best time to invest in the US, urging those interested in US EB-5 investment immigration to act as early as possible.
At a time when the EB-5 program faces major changes and critical uncertainty, Worldway has timely introduced three EB-5 projects already approved by the USCIS, as well as EB-5 projects that offer a guaranteed refund if investment becomes impossible due to legislative changes. Among these, some projects have already completed all employment metrics required for I-829 condition removal, clearing the most significant obstacle to converting conditional green cards into permanent ones!
