With the largest economy in the world, the United States continues to present an attractive choice for immigrants who hope to earn competitive returns on their capital while benefiting from America’s infrastructure, a stable legal system, and an education for their children in our schools. Immigrant investors were a major source of capital that helped propel the American economy out of the recent great recession.

Martinez Manglardi’s team of immigration professionals, including our Board Certified Immigration Expert, have helped hundreds of immigrants to safely invest in the American economy by starting new businesses, establishing U.S. affiliated businesses, or investing in limited partnerships through the EB-5 Regional Center, which can result in lawful permanent resident status. Our team of experts will be glad to assist you with any of a number of investment options that may allow you to reside in the United States temporarily or permanently. Some of these options include:
