Is it really just a matter of spending a little more money to immigrate to the United States after the price increase?! The EB-5 investment immigration program in the United States is set to expire on September 30, and the increase in EB-5 investment amounts has become a consensus in the industry.

The EB-5 Regional Center program in the United States is set to expire on September 30, and the increase in EB-5 investment amounts has become a consensus in the industry. While many investors are rushing to catch the last train of low-cost immigration to the United States, some investors are still hesitating: waiting until the price really increases to immigrate to the United States is not a big deal; even if it really rises to $800,000, isn't it just spending an additional 2 million RMB?


Is this really the case? Is it really just a matter of spending a little more money to process investment immigration to the United States after the price increase? No! Let the WorldWay Immigration Group analyze it for you as follows:





The investment threshold has increased after the price increase


For example, according to the EB-5 bill draft proposed by Senate Majority Leader John Cornyn: the minimum investment amount for Target Employment Area (TEA) projects has increased from $500,000 to $800,000, and thereafter, prices will increase every three years based on the CPI index.


In addition to the additional $300,000 (approximately 2 million RMB), the price increase has also raised the asset threshold for immigrant families, with the total cost of immigrating to the United States approaching 6 million RMB.


The investment risk has increased accordingly after the price increase


The increase from $500,000 to $800,000 not only adds an additional $300,000 (approximately 2 million RMB) in investment costs, but also means that the investment funds involved in risk management have increased by 2 million, thereby increasing the investment risk.


Proving the source of funds is the real challenge


Even for wealthy individuals, the price increase poses a significant challenge in proving the "legitimate source of funds." As a crucial aspect of the EB-5 application, the proof of the source of funds needs to clarify the origin of the entire amount to demonstrate its legality.


Taking the currently relatively simple source of funds solution—mortgage of real estate—as an example, if the amount rises to $800,000, applicants may need to adopt a combination of real estate and other funding solutions to explain the source of funds, or use higher-value properties or multiple properties as collateral, significantly increasing the complexity of proving the source of funds.


The time for currency exchange will be extended accordingly


The price increase of EB-5 will increase the difficulty and extend the time for applicants in currency exchange operations. After the price increase, applicants will need to increase the number of people helping with currency exchange from 12 to 18, and the currency exchange time will be extended by at least 2 weeks compared to before.

The last chance for low-cost investment, seizing it means profit


Compared to other traditional immigration countries, the United States is basically the only high-cost performance option with no language requirements, no age restrictions, no educational requirements, no business background requirements, and no immigration monitoring requirements.


Investing $500,000 for the whole family to obtain a U.S. green card has taken 27 years. Currently, the EB-5 backlog is about to be resolved, the EB-5 investment amount is skyrocketing, and the new U.S. immigration policy is favorable, shortening the investment cycle of the EB-5 project, allowing applicants to receive their temporary green card and return the investment amount after two years!


Seize the last chance for low-cost investment immigration to the United States; seizing it means profit. Do not wait until after the price increase, or you may permanently lose your eligibility to immigrate to the United States and regret it!
