Tag: EB-5 Immigrant Investment Visa program

It’s undeniable that more South Africans are taking advantage of the EB-5 (employment-based, fifth-preference) immigrant investor program, which provides an investor’s entire family with United States green cards based on the creation of jobs for U.S. workers. With no age requirement or need for a U.S. sponsor, the EB-5 visa has quickly become a popular visa option for those seeking an easier life in America with more educational and employment opportunities for a family’s future. 

South Africans are surging towards the popular United States EB-5 Immigrant Investment Visa program ahead of possible price increases that will likely place the EB-5 program out of reach for many other than for the uber-rich.  NES Financial, the leading EB-5 financial brokerage in the U.S., has estimated a 600% increase in EB-5 petition filings from South Africans this fiscal year from three years ago.
