On September 28, 2012, President Obama signed S. 3245 which ratifies the three year reauthorization of the EB-5 Regional Center Pilot Program which solidifies the program until September 30, 2015. There are two ways that you can make an EB-5 investment, either through the regional center program or through a direct investment into a stand alone business (also called ”direct EB-5” or ”individual EB-5”). For the latter option, no reauthorization is needed; however, the project can’t include any indirect jobs.
