Can I use financing from other companies in my name?

The EB-5 visa program allows foreign capital investment in ventures in the United States to stimulate the local economy and create jobs. The structuring of the investment requires strict attention to the rules regarding the origin and nature of the funds, as the amount must be ‘at risk’ throughout the investment period.

Regarding the use of financing from other companies in the investor’s name, the program requires that the capital come from the investor’s own lawful funds, demonstrating their financial capacity and the legitimate origin of the amount. Although there are models that allow third-party capital in other contexts, the EB-5 demands direct control or proof of origin for the investment to be eligible.

Any financial operation must be carefully analyzed to ensure the legality and the at-risk nature of the invested capital. It is essential to seek updated information and consult specialists to ensure legal compliance and transparency throughout the entire process.
