The EB-5 program offers foreign nationals a pathway to U.S. permanent residence through a qualifying investment. Successful applicants may obtain green cards for themselves, their spouse, and unmarried children under the age of 21.<\/p>\n
To qualify, individuals typically invest $800,000 USD into a project affiliated with a government\u0002 authorized Regional Center. These projects are often structured around business or real estate development. Following the investment and petition filing, applicants and their families can receive conditional green cards within approximately 2\u20133 years (or more).<\/p>\n
After holding conditional status for two years, applicants must demonstrate that their investment met job creation or economic impact requirements. If approved, the conditions are removed and permanent residency is granted.<\/p>\n

The EB-5 visa is an investment-driven immigration option that allows individuals to secure U.S. permanent residence without employer sponsorship.<\/p>\n
Within the broader landscape of business immigration<\/a>, it provides a direct route to residency through capital investment rather than employment qualifications. It also serves as an alternative to a traditional employment based green card<\/a>, as eligibility is not tied to a U.S. employer.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/pilkingtonimmigration.com\/wilmington-de\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/50\/2026\/06\/eb5-visa-markham-img.jpg” alt=”A wealthy man sitting at a desk wearing glasses and learning about the EB-5 Green Card [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_2,1_2″ _builder_version=”4.22.2″ _module_preset=”default” min_height=”41.5px” custom_padding=”14px|||||” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.21.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” text_font=”||||||||” text_line_height=”2em” ul_font=”||||||||” header_font=”||||||||” header_2_font=”|700|||||||” header_2_text_color=”#597184″ header_2_font_size=”45px” header_2_line_height=”1.2em” header_3_font=”||||||||” module_alignment=”center” custom_margin=”||20px||false|false” custom_padding=”||0px||false|false” hover_enabled=”0″ header_2_font_size_tablet=”35px” header_2_font_size_phone=”28px” header_2_font_size_last_edited=”on|desktop” text_orientation_tablet=”center” text_orientation_phone=”left” text_orientation_last_edited=”on|phone” global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″]<\/p>\n Applicants begin by wiring the required investment funds along with Regional Center administrative fees into the designated account.<\/p>\n Form I-526 must be submitted to U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS).
