For families wishing for their children to receive education in the United States, having a child with a green card to study in the U.S. makes a significant difference not only in terms of tuition costs, scholarship applications, and student loans but also plays a crucial role in future employment opportunities and admission chances to prestigious schools. Students can also enjoy the hidden benefits that come with "green card status."
Previously, the U.S. Department of Commerce's Bureau of Industry and Security announced 14 sectors regulated by the government, which are also referred to as "sensitive majors" that are not open to foreign students. This further highlights the importance of status.
Today, "educational planning, prioritizing status" has become an important option for many parents when planning their children's future growth! A U.S. green card provides children with more choices. As a top 500 Asian brand, the WorldWay Group has focused on investment immigration for over 20 years, catering to client needs and understanding market trends, proposing the concept of "2024 Education Planning Year" (please click the link) and establishing it as the annual theme for 2024!
Currently, the EB-5 investment immigration program in the United States is an effective way to quickly obtain a U.S. green card. The application conditions are lenient, with no restrictions on age, education, language, business, or work experience. One application allows the entire family to immigrate to the United States, where they can live and work anywhere in the country, and children can enjoy free public education (K12). Spouses and unmarried children under 21 can also immigrate together.
