Benefits of an American Green Card
A Strategic Pathway to American Permanent Residence and Citizenship for Applicants and Their Families
The United States continues to be among the most coveted places for security, opportunity, and long-term stability. While there are many ways to legal permanent residence, the EB-5 Immigrant Investor Program is among the most immediate and rewarding.
Citizens are welcome to apply for a conditional U.S. green card and start their journey to U.S. citizenship—with no strings attached to sponsorship by an employer or visa renewal.
Why Use the EB-5 Program?
The EB-5 visa offers a simple route for eligible foreign nationals to obtain U.S. green cards through investment in a new commercial enterprise or targeted-unemployment area (TEA). For a minimum of $800,000, beneficiaries receive conditional permanent residence for the petitioning applicant, spouse, and unmarried children under 21.
Unlike employment or family-sponsored visas, EB-5 applicants:
- Are not subject to job sponsorship requirements
- Are not limited by need to have specialized skills or past U.S. ties
- May be eligible for faster immigration processing in high-priority nations
- Have the same privileges and entitlements as all other green card owners
Benefits of Having a U.S. Green Card
An American Green Card does not merely grant the right to reside in America—it grants access to opportunity, security, and freedom. Some of the basic benefits that come with permanent residence are as follows:
- Freedom to Work and Live Anywhere in the U.S.
Green card holders enjoy the freedom to engage in any occupation, become entrepreneurs, or join government services once they become eligible for citizenship.
- Access to Public Education
Dependent children of green card holders are enrolled in U.S. public schools for free and are likely admissions to colleges.
- Lower Tuition & Scholarship Availability
Green card holders are domestic students, often enjoying in-state tuition, financial aid, and scholarships at American universities.
- Top-Level Healthcare Access
Take advantage of access to one of the world’s best healthcare systems, including Medicare and other program benefits.
- Unrestricted Domestic & Foreign Travel
Live and work in any state in the United States and enter and exit the country with comparatively fewer restrictions.
- Social Security & Retirement Benefits
Green card recipients are eligible to receive Social Security, pensions, and retirement schemes—regardless of whether payments were made within or outside the United States.
- Residency for the Whole Family
Spouse and children under age 21 automatically entitled conditional green cards under the same EB-5 application.
- Stability & Security
To those fleeing political unrest or economic instability, the U.S. offers a secure, lawful vehicle for long-term growth.
Advantages Only the EB-5 Visa Provides
Apart from overall green card benefits, the EB-5 program provides a number of distinct benefits:
- Business flexibility: Investors can start or co-manage a business that generates jobs, allowing for economic as well as personal development.
- Accelerated citizenship: EB-5 investors can become citizens after residing in the U.S. for five years.
- Less immigration delay: EB-5 applicants have shorter wait periods and less bureaucratic delay than other visas.
- Greater freedom of movement: EB-5 green card holders have greater freedom of movement and less reentry issues when going abroad.
