STEPS TO PURSUE EB-5 VISA WITH WESTERN ENERGY
Step 1: Execute the subscription agreement. Deposit Administrative Fee into Administrative Fee account.
Step 2: Execute the escrow agreement. Deposit $800,000 capital into the designated escrow account.
Step 3: File an I-526 petition for Alien Entrepreneur with the USCIS. This petition requests the USCIS to certify the applicant and the investment as eligible for EB-5 status. When USCIS informs the Regional Center that your petition was received, your investment is permitted to be released from the escrow account into the project.
Step 4: Upon approval of the Petition, (a) if you are in the United States, you may apply for Adjustment of Status to Conditional Resident Status. (b) if you are abroad, prepare documents for an Immigrant Visa Interview at the U.S. consulate or embassy in your home country.
Step 5: File application to remove conditional resident status (Form I-829) between 21 to 24 months after Conditional Resident status is approved.
Step 6: Once conditional resident status is removed, a full Green Card is granted for indefinite permanent resident status and work permission in the United States. U.S. Citizenship is possible 5 years later, upon satisfaction of residence and other criteria.
