Interest in obtaining an alternative residence through investment has increased dramatically over the past few years as high-net-worth individuals from around the world seek to unlock greater global access and enable increased freedom in terms of where they and their families can live, work, and study. As the country with the leading economy worldwide, boasting a GDP of over USD 20 trillion, the USA is one of the most desirable locations for both business and alternative residence. Filipino citizens who make a business investment in the USA can receive permanent residence to this global powerhouse through the US EB-5 Immigrant Investor Program.

The USA: A hotspot for millionaires

Affluent Filipino investors who invest in the USA would be in good company, as the USA dominates the list of the World’s Wealthiest Cities in 2023 when it comes to the number of millionaires living in the country, according to the latest report from Henley & Partners, the global leader in residence and citizenship by investment. New York City wears the crown as the wealthiest city in the world with 340,000 millionaires, while two other American wealth hubs — the San Francisco Bay Area and Los Angeles — come in 3rd and 6th places, with 285,000 and 205,400 resident high-net-worth individuals, respectively.

Business investments required

To receive permanent residence in the USA, applicants must fulfill the following two requirements:

1. Invest in a commercial enterprise associated with a government-approved regional center.

Applicants can choose to either commit USD 800,000 to a targeted employment area project in a rural area or an area with high unemployment, or USD 1.05 million into a non-targeted employment area project.

2. Create or preserve 10 permanent full-time jobs for qualified USA workers.

Investors are also required to have a net worth of at least USD 1 million and be able to prove the legal source of their funds.

After 30–36 months of submitting their application, successful applicants receive an EB-5 visa (green card), granting them and their families the opportunity to live, work, and study in any of the 50 states of the USA.
