EB-5: Temporary Status Removed

The EB-5 visa offers a green card path through investment, but it comes with a two-year conditional period. Here's how to remove those conditions and secure permanent residency:

1. Conditional Green Card: Your initial EB-5 green card is temporary, lasting two years.

2. Petition for Removal (Form I-829): Within 90 days before your second anniversary, file Form I-829 to remove conditions.

3. Proof of Investment & Job Creation: Show USCIS you met program requirements with documents proving: * Investment amount met * Required jobs created (or will be created soon)

4. USCIS Review and Decision: USCIS will assess your petition and evidence. If approved, your conditions are removed.

5. Unconditional Green Card: You and your family receive permanent green cards, allowing you to live and work in the US freely.

6. Green Card Renewal (Form I-90): Renew your green card periodically (usually every 10 years) using Form I-90.

Key Points:

• Meet all program requirements and keep good investment/job creation records.

• Consult an immigration attorney for guidance throughout the process.

Remember: Removing conditions is crucial to securing permanent residency through the EB-5 program.
