Why Should Immigration Attorneys Consider Recommending the EB-5 Option for their Clients?

While immigration attorneys should always prefer less costly
and more efficient ways for their clients to obtain permanent
residency in the U.S., they should also include EB-5 as a viable
option. There is no denying that EB-5 is a more complicated
immigration option than many others. However, attorneys can
work with third-party promoters like licensed broker-dealers
as solution partners. This allows immigration attorneys to focus
solely on the immigration aspects of their client’s application,
where the work is similar to other immigration options, such as
the E-1/E-2.
