Eight steps, honest timelines, and an advisor beside you at every one.
Many families worry that EB-5 is complicated. It doesn't have to be. We break the process into eight clear steps and stay beside you at every one — from your first consultation to your family's permanent residency, and beyond.
We understand your goals and profile, and explain the current picture honestly.
Compare qualifying offerings and review immigration, securities, financial, and conflict disclosures with independent advisers.
Prepare and organise evidence of the lawful source and path of funds for review by your immigration attorney.
You invest and file your EB-5 petition with USCIS.
After petition approval and successful adjustment of status or consular processing, the investor and eligible derivatives may receive two-year conditional permanent residence.
We help your family settle into your chosen U.S. city.
Identify and acquire a running U.S. business or franchise.
Timely file Form I-829 to seek removal of conditions. Eligible permanent residents may later apply for naturalization; it is not automatic.
| Stage | Main timing factors |
|---|---|
| Select project and prepare supporting documents | Family readiness, lawful-source evidence, advisers, and project documents |
| File I-526E — Rural set-aside (priority) | USCIS gives rural petitions statutory priority processing; no fixed completion time |
| File I-526E — High-Unemployment Area | USCIS petition processing and reserved-visa availability |
| File I-526E — Unreserved | USCIS processing plus India’s unreserved Visa Bulletin dates |
| Consular processing in India (NVC, medical, interview) | NVC document review, interview capacity, admissibility, and visa availability |
There is no reliable universal EB-5 timeline. Check current USCIS processing information and the monthly Visa Bulletin with your attorney.
U.S. authorities require clear documentation showing a lawful source of funds. Preparing that record correctly is where experienced coordination matters most. The Calculus helps organise the record; your immigration attorney determines the legal evidence required.
