Klasko, Rulon, Stock & Seltzer, LLP's EB-5 practice team works with developers on options available for developing new projects that might qualify for EB-5 investments, either based on individual EB-5 petitions or through new or existing regional centers. We also counsel foreign nationals on the advantages and disadvantages of individual and regional center EB-5 petitions as compared with other immigration options.
On individual EB-5 petitions, we work with corporate and tax counsel on structuring commercial enterprises that comply with the EB-5 regulations. On all cases, the team works with the foreign national on documenting the lawful source of investment funds. The end result is the filing of an individual or regional center EB-5 petition with substantial documentation.
Finally, the firm’s EB-5 practice team also works with its foreign national clients on filing the application for permanent residency, the condition removal petition and ultimately, where requested, an application for naturalization to U.S. citizenship.
Ron Klasko heads up the firm’s EB-5 practice team. Ron serves as counsel to four of the approved regional centers, including the PIDC (Philadelphia) Regional Center. Ron has lectured extensively and written numerous articles on the EB-5 program and has prepared and filed large numbers of successful EB-5 petitions, both regional center and individual petitions. He presently chairs the EB-5 Committee of the American Immigration Lawyers Association.
