The excessive demand for employer-sponsored green cards under the EB-2 and EB-3 visa categories has resulted in prolonged waiting periods spanning decades for applicants from India and China, making EB-5 one of the fastest routes to U.S. permanent residence. EB-5 visa applicants can anticipate receiving their conditional green cards within approximately 24 months. Learn more about the EB-5 visa.
The EB-5 Reform and Integrity Act increased the popularity of the EB-5 program by introducing the concurrent filing of Adjustment of Status and Employment Authorization applications. These provisions enable H-1B visa professionals to reside and work in the United States while their EB-5 visa application awaits adjudication without employment sponsorship. The USCIS has demonstrated remarkable efficiency in issuing Employment Authorization Documents (EADs) to EB-5 investors, with many receiving their EADs in fewer than 90 days.
The gravitation of H1-B visa holders to EB-5 reflects the advantages it offers H-1B professionals seeking permanent residency
- Freedom from employment sponsorship within months of filing the EB-5 visa application
- Prevents children from aging out once they reach 21 years of age
- Greater access to jobs across the United States
- Freedom to establish and operate one’s own business
- Eligibility for in-state university tuition
- Eliminates the need for visa stamping to re-enter the United States
The EB-5 program offers a pathway to stability and growth for skilled immigrants and their families. Learn more about the advantages of EB-5 for H-1B visa holders.
