EB-5 investor green card
Work
EB-5 is the investor green card: a qualifying investment starting at $800,000 in a targeted employment area, creating ten U.S. jobs. It is complex enough that this is the one petition where we simply recommend an immigration lawyer.
No employer?
Two employment green cards need no employer and no job offer — you petition for yourself, and we build it with you.
The forms
The EB-5 investor petition, for investments made through a regional center.
The green card application itself — registering permanent residence from inside the U.S.
The EB-5 petition to remove the conditions on an investor green card.
Questions
Yes — the EB-2 national interest waiver is an employment-based green card with no employer needed, one of the self-petition paths. The free check shows what a case like yours involves.
It depends on the petition. The self-petition paths need no employer. Petitions like the H-1B or L-1 are submitted by an employer, so they are not sold as self-help drafts here — each of those pages explains the path.
There are two routes: the E-2 treaty investor visa (a visa, not a green card) and the EB-5 investor green card, which involves an $800,000 investment and needs an immigration lawyer. Each page explains the path.
