I heard for EB-5 typically this is very complicated process as one has to show 10 jobs have been created. Basically as I understand, you can open any business and can show legally earned investment of $1M and 10 jobs creation, money at risk for certain time, you got GC. It was pain is neck.
To overcome that BCIS has approved certain regional centers for $1M or $500K investments where you just investment in LLC and you don't have to run the business.
Long story short: Is there any data base of list of these approved centers by state or by project types like real estate, timber, milk processing plants etc. I could not find this information at BCIS website. It seems like lots of lawyer both in USA and outside have setup websites (not sure how many are legitimate) and promoting certain business (again not sure if these people are getting a cut from investments as well on the side).
What is the likelihood you will get your money back after 5 years or so? I don't think you can make money by investing in these areas. I read in the newspaper a big co-operation was approved to get these GC funds to build its headquarter because it was in that high unemployment area and they perhaps could show investment has created 10 + jobs indirectly?
