U.S. IMMIGRATION-LINKED EDUCATION OPPORTUNITIES

An introduction to the U.S. EB-5 Immigrant Investor Program.

Nupaf Education provides an initial connection to FirstPathway Partners, our specialist U.S. partner, for families interested in learning more about the EB-5 Immigrant Investor Program alongside U.S. education planning.

A specialist U.S. pathway handled by our U.S. partner.

The EB-5 Immigrant Investor Program is a U.S. immigration program administered by U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services.

It provides a pathway through which qualifying investors may seek lawful permanent residence by making the required investment in a qualifying U.S. commercial enterprise and meeting applicable job-creation and immigration requirements.

Nupaf Education does not manage the EB-5 investment or immigration process. Our role is to provide initial information and connect interested families directly with FirstPathway Partners for specialist follow-up.

What the program involves

EB-5 combines immigration requirements with a qualifying U.S. investment.

The investment amount, structure of the commercial enterprise, job-creation requirements, lawful source and path of investment capital, immigration eligibility and supporting documentation all form part of the wider process.

Because these issues involve immigration law, investment documentation and individual financial circumstances, prospective investors should receive specialist guidance before making decisions.

The Regional Center pathway

The EB-5 Regional Center Program allows qualifying investors to participate in pooled investment structures associated with USCIS-designated regional centers.

FirstPathway Partners specializes in the U.S. EB-5 Regional Center Program and provides the specialist follow-up for enquiries referred through Nupaf Education.

Information about any currently available investment opportunity, its structure, offering documents and suitability is provided directly by the appropriate U.S. specialists rather than by Nupaf Education.
