[Essential Documents for Your EB-5 Application]

1: (FORM I-526E), IMMIGRANT PETITION BY REGIONAL CENTER

Form I-526E, Immigrant Petition by Regional Center, is a specific application form used in the EB-5 Immigrant Investor Program. This form is intended for foreign nationals who are seeking to obtain a U.S. green card (permanent residency) through investment in a designated Regional Center.

The I-526E application includes details regarding investment, personal information, and financial documentation.

  1. Documentation of Business or Asset Ownership: Provide proof that you own the business or assets relevant to the investment.

  2. Licenses and Permits: Submit copies of all pertinent business and professional licenses or permits that demonstrate your legal authority to operate.

  3. Tax Returns for the Past Five Years: Include your tax returns for the last five years, both for your business and personal finances.

  4. Bank Statements for the Last Five Years: Furnish bank statements for the past five years, showcasing both business and personal accounts.

  5. Capital Source Ownership Evidence: Present evidence that supports your ownership of any additional capital sources being utilized for the investment.

  6. Financial Statements for Each Business: Supply financial statements for all businesses you own, reflecting their financial health and activities.

  7. Proof of Lawful Fund Acquisition: Provide clear evidence that the funds being invested were obtained through legal means.

  1. Personal Passports and Form I-94: It is essential to provide copies of all personal passports held by the investor, including both current and expired passports. Additionally, a copy of the Form I-94 (Arrival/Departure Record) is required, as it provides proof of the investor’s lawful entry into the United States and is critical for establishing immigration history.

  2. Family Member Passports: In order to assess eligibility, it is necessary to submit copies of every page of the passports belonging to family members who are included in the immigration petition. This includes any relevant information that may be found on pages which contain visas, entry stamps, or other notations, as this documentation supports claims regarding family relationships and immigration history.

  3. Prior Immigration Applications: If the applicant has previously submitted any immigration applications or petitions to U.S. authorities, copies of these submissions must be included with the petition. This is important as it allows the reviewing officer to evaluate the investor’s past immigration history, which may impact their current application for the EB-5 program.

  4. Judgments or Legal Actions: The petitioner must supply certified copies of any judgments or ongoing civil or criminal actions, whether public or private, that have been filed against them in any court within the United States or abroad, specifically those that have occurred within the last 15 years. This information is vital for assessing the petitioner’s legal standing and any potential impact on their immigration application, as it reflects the applicant’s background and character.

These documents play a crucial role in establishing eligibility and ensuring compliance with the requirements of the EB-5 Immigrant Investor Program.

  1. Proof that the investor has invested $800,000 or $1,050,000 (based on location) in a USCIS-designated Regional Center project, including subscription documents, I-956F receipt, confirmation of funds memo, and others.
  2. Evidence, if applicable, demonstrating that the project is located in a Targeted Employment Area.
  3.  

Translations
All documents written in a foreign language submitted to USCIS must include a complete and accurate English translation, certified by the translator. The translator must also provide a statement affirming their competence in translating from the foreign language to English.

Copies
If an original document is not explicitly required for an application or petition, a clear photocopy may be submitted instead. Any original documents submitted will be retained as part of the record, even if their submission was not necessary.

– Documentation showing that the EB-5 investment funds were utilized for the project
