EB-5 Investor Webinar: Thinking About the EB-5? Start with These Expert Insights

Emilio Aragon, Senior VP of Investor Relations & Business Development and Head of LATAM at U.S. Immigration Fund, together with Salvatore Picataggio, Partner at Colombo & Hurd, recently led a discussion on the EB-5 Immigrant Investor Program, providing key insights into what prospective investors should understand before beginning the process.

Drawing on extensive experience advising EB-5 investors globally, the discussion explored important topics including:

• The role of a regional Center and how it functions within the EB-5 program
• Whether investors need to have the full $800,000 investment available before initiating the process
• Potential funding alternatives available to investors
• How investment repayment works and factors that influence timing
• What documents are typically required to begin an EB-5 petition

The conversation also addressed risk considerations, investment structure, and long-term planning for families pursuing U.S. permanent residency through EB-5.
