Since ancient times, humanity has embarked on a continuous journey of migration, weaving a magnificent saga of movement. In the modern era, the purpose of migration has transcended the pursuit of basic survival; it is no longer merely about finding a simple place to live. In the ever-flowing river of time, the footsteps of global billionaires, wealthy elites, and the middle class have never ceased. Their migration trajectories serve as a barometer for the global economy, leading the trends of the era.
Recently, the UK-based Henley & Partners released the 2024 World Wealth Migration Report. Based on data from January to June 2024, the report forecasts that 128,000 high-net-worth individuals globally will migrate in 2024, breaking the record of 120,000 set in 2023. From this perspective, this represents a 16% increase compared to the 110,000 people who moved to new countries before the pandemic in 2019. Furthermore, the number of migrants in 2025 is expected to continue to grow to 135,000.
It is particularly noteworthy that this report predicts 15,200 wealthy individuals from mainland China will migrate this year, an increase of 1,400 compared to 13,800 last year, ranking first in net outflows. In the Taiwan region of China, 400 wealthy individuals are expected to choose to migrate, ranking eighth in net outflows.
The report also lists the reasons why high-net-worth families choose to migrate, including: safety and security, financial concerns, taxes and retirement, work and business opportunities, lifestyle factors (such as climate, nature, and scenery), providing quality educational resources for children, trust in advanced healthcare systems, and improving overall quality of life. The main reasons for Chinese wealthy individuals choosing to migrate include corporate investment or listing, business expansion, wealth planning, visa-free travel, and children's education.
Meanwhile, according to the report, we can clearly see that the UAE, the United States, Singapore, Canada, and Australia are highly favored destinations for high-net-worth individuals, ranking in the top five for net inflows. The United States remains one of the countries highly recognized by the wealthy. According to the report, there was a net inflow of 1,500 high-net-worth individuals to the U.S. in 2022, 2,100 last year, and this year it is expected to rise to 3,800.
The 2024 World Migration Report shows that the number of international migrants worldwide has reached 281 million, accounting for 3.6% of the global population, which means that approximately one in every 30 people is a migrant. The United States has always been the most favored immigration destination for Chinese people. The reason the U.S. is so popular among immigrants is mainly because it possesses numerous highly attractive factors. The U.S. is a leading global economy, full of endless opportunities and vast career development space, allowing people to pursue their dreams. It has a highly developed education system with numerous world-renowned institutions, which can lay a solid foundation for the growth and development of children. In addition, the unique cultural charm and diverse, inclusive social atmosphere of the U.S. allow immigrants from different countries and regions to find their place, where they can fully express themselves, realize their value, and feel the atmosphere of freedom and openness. All these factors make the United States a destination that many immigrants yearn for.
Currently, the EB-5 investment immigration pathway is an effective way to quickly obtain a U.S. Green Card. The application requirements for EB-5 investment immigration are flexible, with no restrictions on age, education, language, business, or work experience background. One person applies, and the whole family can immigrate to the U.S., living and working anywhere in the country. Children enjoy free public education (K-12), and spouses and unmarried children under 21 can immigrate together.
Since the release of the new U.S. EB-5 Reform and Integrity Act, it has been very popular among Chinese families. The "EB-5 rural projects under the reserved visa category—no backlog & concurrent filing & priority processing" has become the focus of many families. Faced with this rare opportunity, many applicants have acted quickly, seizing the valuable opportunity to immigrate to the U.S. rapidly and embarking on a new chapter in life. If you also intend to immigrate to the U.S., be sure to get on board quickly, seize the timing, apply as early as possible, get approved as early as possible, and benefit as early as possible!
The three premium EB-5 projects currently hot on the market—the "University Town Hilton Hotel," for which Worldway has been appointed as the exclusive agent in Greater China and which has already received I-956F approval, and the "Florida Lakeside Jewish Community" EB-5 project, which has an actual case with I-526E approval, as well as the "Hawaii Curio Collection by Hilton" EB-5 project jointly created by capital giants—are all high-quality rural EB-5 projects that have been screened and strictly vetted by the Worldway Group.
These three premium EB-5 projects are all rural TEA projects that comply with the new act. They not only enjoy reserved EB-5 visa quotas but also receive priority processing from the immigration bureau. They combine many advantages such as no backlog, priority approval, and EB-5 funds enjoying first-priority mortgage guarantees. With an investment starting from $800,000, one person applies, and the whole family can quickly obtain a Green Card. Quotas are scarce, so act fast.
