For EB-5 investors, job creation is a critical prerequisite for removing conditions and obtaining a permanent Green Card.
According to the EB-5 Reform and Integrity Act, each investor's investment must create at least 10 qualifying full-time jobs within the prescribed period. Upon meeting the investment, job creation, and other application requirements, the investor, along with their spouse and unmarried children under the age of 21, may apply to remove conditions and obtain permanent resident status in the United States.
Therefore, the sufficiency of job creation is directly related to the investor's permanent Green Card application.
9,920 jobs, approximately 3.5 times the statutory requirement
The highly anticipated "Deer Valley Snow Ridge Residences" EB-5 rural project demonstrates a substantial buffer in terms of job creation.
According to the job analysis report issued for the project by the renowned U.S. economic analysis firm bakertilly, using the IMPLAN model:
• Projected jobs created by the project: 9,920
• Jobs required for EB-5 investors: 2,810
• Average jobs per investor: approximately 35
• Overall job coverage multiple: approximately 3.5 times
In other words, while the USCIS requires at least 10 jobs per investor, "Deer Valley Snow Ridge Residences" is projected to create approximately 35 jobs per investor, resulting in a job multiple as high as 3.5 times.
This means that the jobs projected to be created by the project not only cover the basic requirements for all investors but also provide a surplus of over 7,000 jobs, offering more ample room for investors to remove conditions in the future.
Large-scale physical construction provides a solid foundation for job realization
Whether the figures in the job report can ultimately be realized depends on whether the project has real and continuous construction investment.
"Deer Valley Snow Ridge Residences" is located in the Deer Valley ski resort in Park City, Utah, USA. The project is planned to construct 5 high-end residential towers, totaling 374 ski-in/ski-out vacation residences, complemented by facilities such as underground parking, approximately 98,000 square feet of retail space, and a central snow plaza.
The project has now entered the main construction phase, with the main structures of some residential buildings topped out, and construction of other buildings and supporting facilities continuing to advance. The project is expected to be completed in the third quarter of 2030. A real-time video system has been installed at the project site, allowing investors to monitor the progress online at any time, ensuring transparency in construction.
Strong pre-sale performance further validates market demand
In addition to the steady progress of construction, the market sales of "Deer Valley Snow Ridge Residences" have also made positive progress.
Approximately 18 months into the official pre-sale, nearly 100 units have been subscribed, accounting for approximately 25% of the total units in the project.
The strong pre-sale performance not only reflects the market appeal of high-end ski resort properties in Deer Valley but also provides strong support for the project's subsequent development and continuous capital investment.
For EB-5 investors, real construction progress and stable market demand help enhance the certainty that the project will continue to advance according to the business plan, laying the foundation for the gradual realization of jobs.
I-956F approved, project completes pre-approval
The I-956F application for the "Deer Valley Snow Ridge Residences" EB-5 rural project has been approved by the USCIS.
The I-956F primarily involves the project's business plan, investment structure, job creation methodology, and related compliance documents. The approval of this application means that the project-level business plan and job calculation methodology have completed the USCIS pre-approval process.
Subsequent I-526E applications from investors will be adjudicated under this approved project framework, requiring only the review of the investor's personal documents and source of funds.
Five-city tour to comprehensively analyze core project advantages
From job coverage and construction to project approval and policy advantages, "Deer Valley Snow Ridge Residences" has formed a relatively complete project support system, providing more certainty for investors planning their U.S. status. To help investors further understand the project, the "Deer Valley Snow Ridge Residences" EB-5 rural project roadshow will be grandly launched in five cities: Shanghai, Qingdao, Hong Kong, Beijing, and Shenzhen, from August 1st to 9th.
