How is it proven that the jobs created are new?

The EB-5 visa requires proof that the investment has generated, or will generate, at least 10 full-time jobs for qualified United States workers. This requirement is essential to demonstrate that the invested capital has made a concrete contribution to the US economy.

To evidence that the jobs are new, it is imperative to present consistent and detailed documentation. In many cases, investors and project managers must include a robust business plan describing how the company will expand and create positions as a result of the investment made.

Additionally, financial reports, accounting records, and payroll statements are commonly used. These documents help demonstrate that the positions did not exist before the capital infusion – that is, the jobs arise directly from the EB-5 investment.

Another important aspect is to provide information that evidences the transition from potential employment to actual employment. This may include employment contracts, proof of compensation, and declarations from agencies verifying the creation of new positions, as opposed to restructured or transferred vacancies.

The analysis of this evidence shows the real economic impact of the investment. It is worth emphasizing the importance of strictly following United States immigration laws and seeking guidance from specialized professionals and companies that can safely guide the process. In this way, you protect yourself from possible scams or marketing campaigns that promise results without legal or strategic basis.

Each case is unique; therefore, consulting qualified specialists is fundamental to ensure that all rules are properly complied with and that the documentation submitted meets USCIS requirements.
