What is the EB-5 investor visa?

The EB-5 program was initiated in the 1990 by the US government and it has improved many underdeveloped and

unemployment areas in the country. In 2003, the US government licensed the EB-5 projects under the Regional Centers to

raise capital from many countries all over the world

Every year, the US government grants 10,000 EB-5 visas for foreign investors and their family members, 3,000 of which are

indirect investment through the Regional Centers (with an investment of US$500,000/petition) the rest is direct investment

(US$1 million/petition)

With the indirect investment, the investors will be paid back in cash or shares with annual interest

It takes up to two years to process and obtain EB-5 green cards

After two years of holding conditional green cards, we will file Form I-829 with US Citizenship & Immigration Services USCIS)

for EB-5 investors to change to permanent green cards

St Kitts and Nevis Citizenship by

Investment Program

With the citizenship program of St Kitts and Nevis you are eligible to apply for and obtain second

citizenship and passport without any preceding permanent residence requirement

You may choose in between investing in real estate or

making a cash donation. The real estate option requires

you to acquire a piece of property to use for living or

renting, and at the same time qualifies you for citizenship.

US$200,000 in donation (single option) or US$350,000 in

investments and takes three to five months to process.

Dominica recognizes dual

citizenship, and you are not

required to renounce your other

citizenships. Besides that, Dominica

does not notify authorities of your

country of residence or citizenship

on your Dominican citizenship.

You are not required to reside in

Dominica to keep your citizenship.

It’s safe for traveling. The country has a

good international image and being a

Dominican excludes a number of possible

travel problems by definition.

You can also extend your visa-free access by obtaining a residence permit in an appropriate country, for

example, if you obtain a residence permit in Canada, you will be able to travel to the United States. A

residence permit in one of the Schengen states gives you a visa-free access to any European country.

You get virtually the same rights as if you were born in Dominica, i.e. you can vote, purchase property,

live and work in Dominica, if you wish. You enjoy a tax-free status on capital gains, gift, wealth and

inheritance tax. Your worldwide income is liable to taxation in Dominica only if you reside there.

A Dominican passport allows visa-free international travel to more than 100 countries and territories

where no visa required at all, or you easily get a visa upon arrival. And for those countries where a visa is

still required, you normally can obtain it with minimum formalities within a couple of days.

You are granted citizenship for life and it is not

revocable. Issued passports are valid for ten

years. Passports for children under 16 years old

are issued for five years. Expired passports or

those with no free visa pages left can be easily

renewed for a small fee at the immigration and

passport office in Dominica or at any Dominican

consulate. We will assist you to renew your

passports with no need to travel personally to

Dominica or its consulates.

Dominican citizenship is the most affordable

option and quicker to obtain. It requires a

US$75,000 donation for a single option and

US$100,000 for a family option, and normally

takes two to three months. By way of

comparison, the St Kitts and Nevis program

requires a minimum of US$200,000 in donation

(single option) or US$350,000 in investments

and takes three to five months to process.

With the Dominica program, you don’t need to

make a monetary donation in advance. You

deposit money in the governmental escrow

bank account and if your application is rejected,

you will receive your money back.
