Regional
center owners and marketers are famous for being dishonest, and none of them
will disclose to EB-5 visa investors that the USCIS has already sent Notices of Intent To Terminate to 53 Regional
Centers this year! Of these, 29 were sent to Regional Centers that failed to
file I-924a in 2013, and 24 were issued recently for other reasons such as
securities fraud, money laundering, etc. Moreover, due to an expected
11,000 visa petitions that will be filed this fiscal year (ending in October),
it is expected that EB-5 visa investors will have a minimum 2 year wait to get
their temporary green card and well over 4 years to get their permanent green
card.
What does this information tell us?
1. With the spate of investigations launched by USCIS, ICE,
FBI, SEC and IRS, it is quite likely that in addition to the 53 regional
centers already being terminated, at least an additional 40 regional centers
will be terminated from the EB-5 visa program by December 2014, and that it is
very likely that as per ICE's recommendation (see link at ICE recommends shutting down all regional centers in secret memo), regional centers will be entirely
eliminated from the program by next September. As such, EB-5 visa investors
should only choose Direct Investment Businesses in order to avoid being left in
the lurch. After all, we only read about the 53 regional centers who were
terminated by the USCIS, we did NOT hear about hundreds of EB-5 visa investors
who lost their money AND their green cards because they made the mistake of
choosing a regional center instead of opting for a Genuine Direct Investment
Business. As a matter of fact, immigrant investors should always choose Genuine
Direct Investments, irrespective of whether they choose the EB-5 or EB-1C route
to get their green card.
Some EB-5 visa investors may ask: WHY should an immigrant
investor choose Genuine Direct Investments as opposed to Regional Centers?
My dad taught me that there are only 3 types of people in
this world: a) Those who learn from the experience and mistakes of others, b)
Those who learn from their own mistakes and experience, c) Those who never
learn. There is a REASON that ICE clearly recommended shutting down ALL
regional centers due to the rampant fraud and conflict of interest seen in
them. There is a REASON that CEO's and CFO's of regional centers refuse to give
guarantees of freedom from fraud and conflict of interest. Fact is, not only do
EB-5 visa petitions get approved a lot sooner with Direct Investment
Businesses, they also usually yield solid operating income, have easy exit
strategies and usually yield capital gains. It is IMPOSSIBLE to come across a
regional center that offers these features. Another reason to choose Genuine
Direct Investment Businesses is that they offer the ability to constantly
maintain the 10 new jobs profitably,
while regional centers are constantly sweating about HOW to even create and
document 10 jobs per investor?
Investors
can get green card quickly under EB-1C visa category too, especially if they've
been owning and operating their own business overseas for at least a year. Our
team helps and advises investors in migrating to the US and getting green card
under EB-1C and EB-5 category. The required investment amount ranges from minimum
$350,000 for EB-1C to $500,000 or more for EB-5, and we offer a GUARANTEE OF A
FULL FEE REFUND in case our client is denied due to our negligence or
incompetence. Our competitors usually NEVER guarantee a full fee refund in case
they err.
