EB-5 Immigrant Investor
EB-5 is the permanent-residency route for investors who can place capital in a qualifying US project and stand behind ten full-time jobs. It is not a treaty visa. It is a long-horizon move for the whole family.
THE OPPORTUNITY
Pursue permanent residence through capital invested in a qualifying US project.
EB-5 is the permanent-residency route for investors who can place capital in a qualifying US project and stand behind ten full-time jobs. It is not a treaty visa. It is a long-horizon move for the whole family. Alpha Oak coordinates the commercial, mobility and family considerations as one connected strategy, so the route works beyond approval or launch.
PROGRAMME SNAPSHOT
The numbers that frame the file.
Under current EB-5 Reform and Integrity Act rules. We re-check thresholds before any capital is committed.
Full-time positions for qualifying US workers the investment must create or preserve.
Typical conditional green card period before removal of conditions, when job and project tests are met.

When EB-5 beats E-2, and when it does not.
E-2 suits treaty nationals building an operating business they will run day to day, renewed while the venture stays real. EB-5 suits families who want a direct path to permanent residency through a vetted project, often regional-center backed, with capital fully at risk. Many clients compare both on the first call. We help you choose on facts, not brochure promises.
FULL DETAILS
Four gates every EB-5 file must clear.
USCIS reads for substance at each step. We build the narrative once and carry it through.
Project diligence
Regional center or direct, TEA or standard, I-956F approval status, developer track record, and how jobs will actually be counted.
Lawful source of funds
A documented trail from earned income, business sale, inheritance, or gift, strong enough for USCIS and your bank.
Capital deployment
Investment placed and at risk in a new commercial enterprise before or as the I-526E petition is filed, with escrow and release mechanics understood.
Residency sequence
Conditional green card, job verification at I-829, then permanent status for the principal investor, spouse, and unmarried children under 21.
FULL DETAILS
Three ways clients enter EB-5.
Same statutory test. Different project shapes. We match the route to how you actually hold and move capital.
