Short answer: US EB-5 requires a qualifying investment and creation of at least ten full-time jobs for US workers. TEA and eligible infrastructure projects use a lower statutory minimum than standard projects. Paths include regional centers or direct investment. Spouse and unmarried minor children may accompany. Regional center charges to investors are management fees.
