Northeast Economic Analysis Group (NEEAG) specializes in Targeted Employment Area (TEA) analysis within the EB-5 program. The Chief Economist, Elliot Winer, has a particular expertise in evaluating and developing potential (TEAs). He has extensive experience working with state and local governments throughout the nation to secure TEA certifications that abide by USCIS and individual state rules and regulations.
NEEAG has been able to analyze, predict and determine the probability that an area within a state may qualify as a TEA as of the time of the analysis. We work with the client to coordinate and present authoritative documentation to the local or state governing department or entity for quick verification and expected designation of the requested TEA. The submitted documentation will address the unique requirements of each individual state.
The primary scope of our TEA services includes a preliminary evaluation, a complete and thorough analysis document presented to government authorities, and recommendations. In addition, the scope of our TEA services includes peer review services, teleconferencing, personal presentations (if required), follow-up letters of review to public authorities, and re-evaluations and recertifications. We also evaluate the potential status of a TEA under the rural criteria and if applicable, prepare the appropriate documentation as local and state governing authorities are not authorized to certify rural status.
We are also affiliated with a wide range of well qualified professionals in such fields as economics, business, development, legal, and real estate.
Our other non TEA related services include:
Private and public professional economic analysis and assistance
Economic and demographic analysis and labor market and career information
Forensic economics and research
Interacting with and providing commentary for major print and electronic media
Public speaking engagements
