The EB-5 Pathway at a Glance
Investment
EB-5 requires a qualifying investment in a new commercial enterprise. We help you understand the investment structure and the requirements that apply to your circumstances.
Job Creation
A qualifying EB-5 investment must generally support the creation of at least 10 full-time jobs for qualifying U.S. workers. We help you understand how job creation fits into the overall immigration process.
Permanent Residency
Eligible investors, spouses, and qualifying unmarried children may pursue U.S. permanent residency through the EB-5 process, subject to applicable requirements.
Family Opportunity
EB-5 can provide an immigration pathway that extends beyond the primary investor. Understanding eligibility and family-related requirements is an important part of planning your case.
More Than an Investment
EB-5 is not simply a financial decision. It is an immigration strategy that connects investment, job creation, documentation, and long-term residency objectives. Before moving forward, investors need a clear understanding of how these elements interact and how the requirements apply to their individual circumstances.
Richmond Manchester LP takes a structured approach to the EB-5 journey. We focus on helping clients understand the process, evaluate their available options, prepare for the requirements ahead, and maintain clarity throughout the major stages of their immigration journey.
