What you receive
A summary of your priorities, the documents to start gathering and questions for the project contact or an immigration attorney. You may skip a question, go back or clear all answers.
Which documents should I start gathering for EB-5?
Start with identity and family records — passports, birth and marriage certificates — and the records that show the lawful source and path of your investment funds: tax returns, business and employment records, sale, inheritance, gift or loan documents, and bank statements and transfer records. USCIS reviews the source of funds in detail, so gathering early saves time. Your immigration attorney decides exactly what your case requires.
A planning aid
The checklist organizes your next steps. An immigration attorney reviews whether the program and filing route fit your circumstances; this guide does not make that assessment.
