The EB-5 Visa continues to offer a reliable pathway to US permanent residency for families seeking long-term opportunities, even as immigration policies become more restrictive. Through qualifying investments that create American jobs, the program provides eligible investors and their families with a route to a US Green Card and, ultimately, US citizenship, while also offering educational and career advantages for the next generation.
Marcelo Gorenstein, Senior Director, Latin America at LCR Capital Partners, highlights that Regional Center EB-5 projects remain the most established and secure option for many investors because they simplify the immigration process while meeting the program’s job creation requirements. He also emphasizes the importance of acting before the September 30, 2026, grandfathering deadline, as investors who file their I-526E petition by that date can preserve eligibility under the current EB-5 rules and current investment amounts, even if the program changes in the future.
