investments.
Administered by the Department of Homeland Security’s
United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS),
the EB-5 program allows foreign entrepreneurs to establish
permanent residence in the United States if they make a
significant financial investment in a US-based company and
create or preserve 10 permanent, full-time US jobs. Regional
EB-5 centers facilitate the entire EB-5 investment approval
process.

3.  Most EB-5 investments follow one of two structures.
The most basic follows a single-tier configuration in
which a regional center or an affiliate of a regional
center serves as the enterprise’s managing member.
The two-tiered EB-5 investment structure offers
investors protections and certainties that the single-tier
structure cannot accommodate. The typical two-tiered
structure involves foreign investors who invest in a new
business entity, which, in turn, uses that capital to
make a secured, collateralized loan to the operating
company.
