And why on earth would those EB-5 visa holders have invested in low-income housing? Nothing in the visa requirements description seems to mention 'low-income', 'distressed', 'economically disadvantaged' or anything of the sort. [0] Here: > All EB-5 investors must invest in a new commercial enterprise, which is a commercial enterprise: > Established after Nov. 29, 1990, or > Established on or before Nov. 29, 1990, that is: > 1. Purchased and the existing business is restructured or reorganized in such a way that a new commercial enterprise results, or > 2. Expanded through the investment so that at least a 40-percent increase in the net worth or number of employees occurs The closest thing is how it specifies amounts - $1m in general, or $500,000 in rural or high unemployment areas. Which is closer, but still doesn't require low-income housing... 0: https://www.uscis.gov/working-united-states/permanent-workers/employment-based-immigration-fifth-preference-eb-5/about-eb-5-visa-classification https://www.uscis.gov/working-united-states/permanent-worker...
