The article for The American Bazaar explores the pros and cons of short-term EB-5 projects.
Ever since U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services clarified the two-year sustainment period for EB-5 investments, the question for investors has been whether it’s actually possible for an EB-5 project to return their capital in two years while also creating the requisite jobs, or if there are reasons they might want to stay away from these short-term projects. JTC’s Jill Jones recently authored an article exploring this concept.
Published in The American Bazaar, “New EB-5 changes present both opportunities and risks for foreign investors pursuing US residency” explains the two-year sustainment period, the questions surrounding how this period will be calculated, and why the risks of a short-term project may outweigh the rewards. It also supplies helpful info for investors looking for a reliable EB-5 project that will help them achieve their immigration goals.
Check out the full article at The American Bazaar for Jill’s expert opinion on the sustainment period, EB-5 due diligence, and best practices for selecting an EB-5 project.
