I'm not the OP, but as I understand it a founder of a company would be eligible for immigration on an EB-5 visa. From this website ( https://www.uscis.gov/green-card/green-card-through-job/green-card-through-investment https://www.uscis.gov/green-card/green-card-through-job/gree... ), they would be eligible if they plan to create/preserve 10 jobs and invest $1m (or $500k in a "targeted high employment area". This is pretty similar to most developed nations--provide enough investment money and you can immigrate without much question.
- winter_blue 10y agojameshush would need to have $1 million or $500k (if he wants to open his startup in a poor/remote area) to get this visa. I don't know about jameshush, but most people don't have that level of disposable assets lying around that they can just expend on a business venture. Also, FYI, you cannot get $500k of investment and qualify for the EB-5 visa. The $500k has to be your own money.
