South Florida Investment Regional Center (SFIRC)

Welcome to the South Florida Investment Regional Center. We have been designated by the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) to provide investment opportunities to foreign investors interested in participating in the EB-5 Investor Visa Program and obtaining green cards.

Our investment opportunities span a wide range of industry categories that are vital to the multi-faceted South Florida economy.

As the gateway to the Americas, South Florida is a thriving global market with a cultural diversity that makes the region a unique and desirable place to work and live. Here you will find people from more than 150 countries who speak more than 60 different languages.

The U.S. Immigrant Investor Program

The program provides for conditional, two-year resident status to qualifying investors and their families who invest at least $1 million (or $500,000 in designated target areas) in businesses that create at least ten full-time permanent jobs for American workers.

After two years, if the investment and job-creation requirements of the program are met, unconditional, permanent residency can be applied for and received.

The United States government modified its 1990 immigrant investor program in 1993 by implementing a pilot program where regional centers designated by the Immigration and Naturalization Service (now the USCIS) were established.

In these regional centers, flexible, passive investment opportunities are created for a pool of immigrant investors through the creation of limited partnerships.

Today, our organization, the South Florida Investment Regional Center, is a designated regional center for South Florida's Miami-Dade and Monroe counties.
