What is an EB-5 Regional Center?

An EB-5 Regional Center is a USCIS-designated entity authorized to sponsor EB-5 investments within approved geographic areas and industry categories. Regional Centers facilitate investment into job-creating projects and allow investors to count direct, indirect, and induced jobs toward the EB-5 Program's job creation requirement. Created by Congress in 1993 under the Immigrant Investor Program, the Regional Center model enables pooled investment structures designed to promote economic growth while complying with USCIS regulations and the Reform and Integrity Act of 2022.

Why More EB-5 Investors Invest Through Regional Centers

Regional Center investments provide greater job-creation flexibility by counting direct, indirect, and induced jobs and allowing multiple investors to pool capital into a single project. Compared to direct EB-5 investments, this structure offers a more reliable path to meeting USCIS requirements.

Job Creation Methodology

Regional Centers count direct, indirect, and induced jobs using approved methodologies, providing greater flexibility in meeting the 10-job requirement.

Pooled Capital Structure

Regional Centers pool capital from multiple investors into a single EB-5 Project, allowing job creation to be measured across the entire development rather than by individual payroll.

Reduced Job-Creation Risk

Jobs are credited based on qualifying Project expenditures and economic impact, not solely on individual W-2 employees, reducing exposure to staffing fluctuations.

Professional Oversight

Experienced teams oversee Project sponsorship, compliance filings, and reporting under USCIS regulations and the RIA of 2022.

Regulatory Compliance

USCIS-designated Regional Centers file required forms, including I-956F and I-956G, and maintain ongoing compliance controls.

Ongoing Investor Reporting

Investors receive regular updates on project progress and key compliance milestones.

Passive Investment Structure

Investors are not required to participate in day-to-day management of the project.

6 Owned Regional Centers

An owned Regional Center is a USCIS-designated entity that the EB-5 operator legally owns and controls. The operator manages required filings such as Forms I-956F and I-956G, oversees compliance policies and audits, controls geographic and industry scope, and bears regulatory liability under the Reform and Integrity Act. This structure provides full operational control and full compliance responsibility, which is why many large EB-5 platforms prefer ownership in the post-RIA environment.

4 Licensed Regional Centers

A Licensed Regional Center is a USCIS-designated entity not owned by the EB-5 sponsor but utilized pursuant to a use agreement. The sponsor pays licensing fees, and the RC owner remains responsible for all USCIS compliance filings and oversight. This structure allows the sponsor to utilize Regional Center coverage in geographic areas where it does not maintain an owned Regional Center but intends to sponsor EB-5 Projects.

Statistics reflect only the EB-5 Projects promoted by EB5 United under each Licensed Regional Center's sponsorship and do not represent their total activity across all sponsored projects.

What Are USCIS Approval Letters?

USCIS approval letters are formal designation notices issued by U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services confirming that an entity is authorized to participate in the EB-5 Program as a Regional Center. Issued in connection with approval of Form I-956 under the Reform and Integrity Act of 2022, the designation establishes the Regional Center's approved geographic scope and assigns a unique Regional Center identification number. This identification number is required for all subsequent Form I-956F Project filings submitted under the Regional Center's sponsorship.

Why They Matter?

USCIS approval letters establish the legal authority of a Regional Center to sponsor EB-5 Projects within specified regions and sectors. Without an active approval letter, a Regional Center cannot lawfully sponsor EB-5 investments, and investor petitions associated with it may be placed at risk. They verify regulatory legitimacy, confirm geographic authorization, demonstrate compliance with current law, and reduce immigration risk. In essence, they provide documented proof that the Regional Center is properly authorized and operating within USCIS requirements.

How do I select the best Regional Center?

Choosing a Regional Center is one of the most important decisions in your EB-5 journey. It's important to focus on objective, verifiable indicators of performance, compliance, and investor protection.

I-829 approval success rate

Ask for the number of I-829 approvals and denials tied to specific projects and filing cohorts.

Job creation track record

Look for projects structured with a meaningful cushion above 10 jobs per investor and ask how the buffer is calculated and what assumptions drive it.

Capital stack

Understand where EB-5 capital sits in the capital stack, whether senior debt, mezzanine, or equity.

Compliance posture

Confirm timely filings and internal controls, including Form I-956F Project approvals, I-956G annual reporting, fund administration, audits, and required compliance policies.

Track record of repayments and exits

Ask how much capital has been repaid, across how many Projects, under what structures, and on what timelines.

Transparency and reporting

Look for clear investor reporting cadence, construction and spending updates, job creation reporting, material change disclosures, and who you can contact for answers.

What happens if a Regional Center Projects fails to create jobs?

If a Regional Center project fails to create the required number of jobs, investors may face serious immigration consequences. USCIS may deny the investor's Form I-829 petition, which is the filing used to remove the conditions on permanent residence. Because the EB-5 program requires that at least 10 qualifying U.S. jobs be created per investor, a job-creation shortfall can result in the denial of the I-829 and the loss of conditional permanent resident status. Beyond immigration risk, investors may also face financial loss if an EB-5 Project underperforms or fails, as EB-5 investments must remain at risk and do not carry guaranteed returns.

Are Regional Center investments safe?

EB-5 Regional Center investments are not risk-free. The capital must remain invested or "at-risk" until the investor has completed their Conditional Residency, if they fail to do so their Green Card will not become permanent. Even though EB-5 investments need to be "at-risk" that does not mean that the investment needs to be inherently "risky". EB5 United structures all deals with two primary objectives: However, established Regional Centers with strong track records, USCIS compliance history, diversified Project portfolios, and experienced management teams significantly reduce these risks. Well-structured EB-5 offerings have a structured exit strategy in which the EB-5 investors are repaid in full plus interest.
