The Difference Between The Conditional and Permanent Green Card
On June 20th 2012, Fred Burgess, Managing Partner at Exclusive Visas and Renata Castro, Project Manager at Exclusive Visas, escorted a group of prospect Brazilian Investors on a visit to the Princeton Baptist Hospital in Birmingham, Alabama.
The project, which is currently being offered under the EB-5 Regional Center Pilot Program as part of Sunbelt Regional Center’s project portfolio, comprises a US$ 57 million dollars expansion and remodeling of Princeton Hospital. The project will replace all 14 operating rooms with 16 news rooms, replace all 6 endoscopy suites, replace and expand all pre- and post –operative support areas, replace and expand instrument processing/sterilization department, replace the chapel and replace and improve waiting areas and lobby.
Princeton Baptist Hospital has successfully operated in the Birmingham area for the past 90 years, and is considered an excellence center for Cardiac and Vascular care.
“This EB-5 capital raise is a great example of how EB-5 Regional Center Pilot Program can benefit US communities through job creation”, said Fred Burgess.
Curtis James, CEO of Sunbelt Regional Center, has released data that shows that the EB-5 project will be responsible for generating over 1000 direct and indirect jobs.
The investor group from Brazil was impressed with the progress in the EB-5 project, and solidity of the group
behind the development. The expansion is scheduled to open July 27th, 2012, with the first procedure already scheduled for late August 2012.
Exclusive Visas thoroughly researches all Regional Center projects in the United States, and endorses only those projects that meet our rigorous standards. When you hire Exclusive Visas, we hold your hand from the moment you begin considering which Regional Center program to invest in, until the day you receive your permanent green card. You will be assigned a personal concierge to liaise between your Immigration Attorney, and the Regional Center throughout the entire process.
EB-5 Investor Webinar – Key Steps Of The EB-5 Process
Exclusive Visas will start offering Webinars to foreign investors looking to learn more about EB-5 and its benefits. This Webinar will take the investor through the different steps of the EB-5 petition, time frames and other aspects of the EB-5 process. See dates
The concise and objective curriculum gives the investors the knowledge to make better decisions related to the selection of the various professionals involved in the EB-5 process, along with clarification of the Regional Center EB-5 Pilot Program. As we are in the eve of the sunset of the program, September 30, 2012, investors will also be educated in the implications of said date and dates to be aware of when planning for their EB-5 petitions.
Exclusive Visas has been involved in over 300 successful investor petitions, coming from the most various countries. Brazil, Iran, India, China, Vietnam, Thailand, Russia, Canada, Mexico, Venezuela, and Nigeria are a few of the countries from where we have worked with investors from. Exclusive Visas’ team of attorneys, economists, finance professionals and project managers possess the combined set of skills and knowledge needed to empower investors in the EB-5 process, which can be a daunting and scary process to undertake on one’s own.
The webinars will be held at different time and schedules to accommodate your different availabilities.
The Choice Of Advisers Is Often As Important As Choice of Attorney
As an Immigration Attorney, focused on EB-5 cases, I am often asked by Clients to recommend particular projects. I explain that, as an Immigration Attorney, I am neither qualified nor able to provide such investment advice and that my Clients should ensure that they consult with other professionals – Investment Advisers, Accountants, CPA’s etc.
However, my duties to my Clients nevertheless require me to provide as much information as I can about projects in which they may be interested or projects in which they have already invested, if only from an Immigration-, rather than from an Investment perspective.
Similarly, when retained in connection with Applications for Regional Center designation, I am often required to advise how to structure a project so as to both comply with USCIS requirements and, at the same time, remain marketable.
There are many agencies in the market today that will provide advice in the above categories. Some are excellent, many are not. The choice of advisers is often as important as the choice of attorney.
I have worked with Exclusive Visas in the past in connection with many cases and have always found Fred and Joe and their staff to be knowledgeable, professional and helpful. They are able to provide advice to Regional Centers about marketing their Projects abroad, and they are able to assist investors when choosing EB-5 Regional Center Projects in which to invest.
In my experience and those of my Clients, Exclusive Visas provide impartial, up to date advice and I have and will continue to recommend their services.
