EB-5 Visa Usage (2006-March2012)

Big thanks to IIUSA for generating this report on EB-5 visa usage dating back to 2006 to our current month. IIUSA thoughtfully provides charts that illustrate the increase in EB-5 visa usage by year and tracks the trends for each individual country that participates. The Chinese nationals continue to dominate the list (accounting for nearly 70% of EB-5 visas issued in 2011 and 2012 to date), but a keen observation notes that Iran and Venezuela have moved into the top five countries by EB-5 visa usage. The report indicates that 2,405 visas had been issued in FY2012 as of March 2012.

EB5 - Visa Approvals Fast???

Second Round of Meetings in Delaware

Empire State EB-5 is happy to announce that we have been invited back to the State of Delaware for a second round of meetings, February 7th & 8th. Delegates from the State of Delaware will be present and the agenda for the day is regarding the USCIS EB-5 Program and how a FUNCTIONAL Regional Center such as Empire State EB-5 can be a benefit for overall success and gratitude. Our first meetings went well, but we were not able to penetrate the main points that we feel are the bulk of the issues at hand to get this on the ground floor and running. Our optimism this time around is gauged on the right hand side of the charger with positive motives. Empire State EB-5 will have firm grip on the direction that will curtail by the end of the week with the State of Delaware. Our plans are to grab the keys to the machine and get things motoring.

Looking for a functional and operating EB-5 Regional Center that has interest in helping the US Economy and Job Market increase through exceptional projects, but also the well being of our foreign investors??
