New Commercial Enterprise


Posted on 01/21/2012 by Mark A. Ivener, A Law Corporation

The EB-5 Program provides that a new commercial enterprise can be used as the basis for the petition of more than one immigrant investor. Each immigrant investor must invest the required amount of capital and each immigrant investor’s investment must result in the required number of jobs.

The new commercial enterprise can have several owners and the owners do not all have to be immigrant investors seeking to enter the EB-5 Program, provided that the source(s) of all capital invested is (or are) identified and all invested capital has been derived by lawful means.

Taken from USCIS Policy Memorandum regarding EB-5 Adjudications Policy on November 9, 2011.
