JI Northern Nevada Regional Center (JI NNRC) received its regional center designation from the USCIS in May 2014. Situated geographically to do business in northeastern Nevada, the regional center can currently service projects in the following counties: Elko County (Nevada), Toole County (Utah), and Twin Falls County (Idaho). However, we have the ability to amend our regional center geographical boundaries.
JI NNRC works with developers and business owners on options available for developing new projects that qualify for EB-5 investments, either based on individual EB-5 petitions or through new or existing regional centers. Where appropriate, we file applications for new regional centers and exemplar petitions for new regional center projects.
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 Regional Center of Nevada Investors practice team also works with its foreign national clients on filing the application for conditional permanent residency, the condition removal petition and ultimately, where requested, an application for naturalization to U.S. citizenship.
