Home · For Your Child's Education

EB-5 isn't just a Green Card. It's your child's head start in America.

The single most persuasive reason Indian parents choose EB-5.

For your children

A child who holds a Green Card enters the U.S. education and career system as a permanent resident — not an international student. That means the freedom to work and a future that doesn't hinge on the H-1B lottery.

Green Card child vs F-1 student

Area	Green Card (EB-5) child	F-1 international student
Right to live in the U.S.	Permanent	Only during study + visa validity
Working	Freely	Restricted (campus / OPT)
After graduation	Any suitable job	Needs OPT, then sponsorship
H-1B lottery	Not required	Often required

A permanent resident may be eligible for federal student aid and is not subject to F-1 employment restrictions. Admission, tuition classification, state residency, scholarships, and aid remain subject to each institution’s rules. Children generally must be unmarried and under 21 to qualify as derivatives, with CSPA rules requiring case-specific legal advice.
