Contact an Orlando Immigration Lawyer about the EB5 Visa, an Investor Visa Offering Lawful Permanent Residence in the US

America is built upon the dreams, hard work, and courage of immigrants. The EB5 visa continues this tradition by giving immigrants the chance to invest in their own business in the United States, become lawful permanent residents, and employ US workers.

Orlando, FL is a prime area for immigrants to enjoy the benefits of the EB5 visa, considering the quality of life and diverse economy this area of the United States provides. However, since the EB5 visa involves a significant financial investment and maintenance over time, it is highly advised that anyone interested in this visa consult with an attorney before, during, and after the application process.

An Orlando immigration lawyer from Maney | Gordon, P.A. would be happy to sit down and discuss the qualifications and benefits of the EB5 investor visa, as well as assist you through the application and maintenance process. Some requirements of the highly sought-after EB5 visa include:

  • Investing at least $1 million into an active US business enterprise (or investing $500,000 in certain designated areas of high unemployment)
  • Employing at least 10 US workers through the investment enterprise
  • Making sure the investment and employment continues for two years
  • After the two-year period, submitting a new petition to demonstrate that the investor has invested the entire amount, has maintained that investment, and has employed at least 10 US workers on a full-time basis

Once the above requirements have been verified, the EB5 visa investor may be granted lawful permanent residence in the United States. The EB5 visa also allows the investor to live, work, and retire in Orlando or anywhere else in the country, as well as sponsor a spouse and children for permanent US residency. Due to its flexibility, the EB5 is the preferred choice for immigrants who want to invest in a US enterprise, receive a direct route to a green card, and eventually apply for US citizenship.

Please contact an Orlando immigration lawyer from Maney | Gordon, P.A. today to receive a free initial consultation about the EB5 visa and other visas available in the Orlando, FL area.
