Most EB-5 investors choose to work with USCIS-approved Regional Centers. These entities are authorized to sponsor EB-5 projects and play a key role in managing and structuring investments. One of the major advantages of investing through a Regional Center is how job creation is calculated. Unlike direct investments, which only count jobs directly tied to the project, Regional Centers allow for the inclusion of indirect and induced jobs as well—making it easier to meet the EB-5 program’s job creation requirements.
With Regional Center sponsorship, your investment is pooled with others, offering exposure to larger-scale, professionally managed projects. This structure not only increases the likelihood of meeting immigration requirements but also reduces the burden of hands-on business involvement.
