State of Vermont Regional Center

The EB-5 Visa Program

This is a Federal scheme, offering permanent residency to citizens from outside the US in return for their investment in much needed job creation schemes. It has been running since 1990, and is for many people the only realistic opportunity they have to gain a Green Card.

For foreign investors looking for freedom and flexibility to live, work or retire in the United States, in a way accommodating to their lifestyles, the EB-5 Visa investor category can provide an excellent opportunity to accomplish this goal by obtaining Green Cards.

A Green Card provides Permanent Residency for the applicant, his or her spouse and any offspring under the age of 21.

Emigrating to the United States via the EB-5 Visa allows you and your family to live, work or retire anywhere within the United States.
