My father invests in projects abroad and wants to invest in a U.S. health care company. He wants to invest up to 1 million U.S. dollars. I am going to be overseeing this company in the U.S.A. My father is not interested in running the business but I am. Could I get an EB-5 green card to do so?

Schedule a Free Consultation with Top EB5 Visa AttorneysIn this scenario, your father would need to gift you the funds to effectuate the EB-5 investment. If you are over the age of 21, you cannot get a green card through your father''s EB-5 investment.

Schedule a Free Consultation with Top EB5 Visa AttorneysYes. Your father can gift the money to you and you will be the investor of the US business and apply for EB-5 visa. You may also want to check if you can apply for L-1 visa and green card based on EB-1C category.
