Family Benefits of the EB-5 Investor Visa Program

Family Benefits of the EB-5 Investor Visa Program

The EB-5 program offers significant advantages for families seeking U.S. permanent residency. Here’s how:

  • Derivative EB-5 visas for dependents: The EB-5 investment extends benefits beyond the primary applicant. Spouses and unmarried children under 21 qualify for derivative EB-5 visas, allowing them to immigrate alongside the main investor.
  • Streamlined family immigration: By investing through EB-5, you can include your immediate family in your green card application. This simplifies the immigration process for your dependents, eliminating the need for separate petitions.
