The benefits of the EB-5 programme are substantial. Investors and their immediate family members receive non-restrictive Green Cards, granting them the freedom to live, work, study, or do business anywhere in the United States. After five years, investors are eligible to apply for U.S. citizenship. Furthermore, their children gain access to over 4,000 higher education institutions in the USA, including Ivy League colleges, and the family benefits from high-quality healthcare services and visa-free travel to 160 countries.
Investors can choose from a range of opportunities including Kerzner International’s One&Only Moonlight Basin and The Lakefront Estates & Villas in Florida. The One&Only Moonlight Basin in Big Sky, Montana, is a six-star luxury resort within the Moonlight Basin community. This project features 123 accommodation options, including hotel guest rooms, cabins, and private residences, alongside a world-class spa, ski lodge, and high-speed gondola, located near the prestigious Yellowstone Club. Whereas, the Lakefront Estates & Villas in Okeechobee, Florida, is a master-planned community comprising 1,000 single-family lots, 300 rental units, and 780,000 square feet of commercial space, all developed in three phases and designed to foster a vibrant community lifestyle with numerous amenities.
One of the benefits of investing in the One&Only Moonlight Basin project is that it falls into a rural EB-5 visa category which allows for expedited processing, potentially shortening the time to obtain permanent residency. To qualify, an investor must commit $ 800,000.
The partnership between EB-5 United and 12 Star Capital represents a significant step forward in providing premium investment opportunities under the EB-5 Investor Programme.
