December Is The Last Window For $800,000 U.S. Residency Investment Arabian Post

The cost of obtaining U.S. permanent residency through investment is expected to rise from January 1, 2027, adding urgency for investors who want to file under the current $800,000 EB-5 threshold.

The EB-5 Immigrant Investor Program

From January 1, 2027, the minimum investment amount is due to be adjusted for inflation. While the final figure has not yet been officially confirmed, industry estimates suggest the new minimum could rise to around $900,000 to $950,000.

Because the applicable investment amount is determined by when an investor's petition is filed, December 2026 is effectively the final filing window for those hoping to proceed under the current $800,000 threshold.

The session will cover how the program works, who may qualify, the expected 2027 investment increase, source-of-funds requirements and what investors should consider if they hope to file before the current threshold changes.

With the January adjustment approaching, investors already considering EB-5 may have a strong reason to begin preparing before the end of the year.
