Immigration AttorneyAnswered onYes, you can use rental income for an EB-5 program investment, so long as the rental income derived from a source other than the program itself. For example, if you have a rental already in existence from which you are earning income, you can invest that income in a different project in the U.S.. You can also obtain a loan secured by your rental property so long as the EB-5 program is not securing the loan in any way. Answer: You can show that each month, or other period, you receive $xxx from your renter. That money is then placed in a bank or other institution. The money you invest comes from the financial institution. Assuming you have a rental agreement with your renter, you support your assertion that $xxx came from your renter. Each situation is a little different. It would be important to review your rental agreements, ownership documentation of the rented facility, and reasonable documentation to show the activity of the renter to show that the rent payment was to house lawful activity.

But depending on when you purchased the property that you have rented you may be required to provide evidence of how you purchased that property. You may be required to provide evidence on the source of fund with which you purchased the property.

Immigration AttorneyAnswered onIf the rental income was reported by income tax returns, you could use it. You need to show that you have either assets of $1 million or income of $200,000 per year for the last 3 years to be eligible to be an EB-5 investor.

Immigration AttorneyAnswered onLawful source of funds is generally shown by tax return for the last 5 years or other documents to evidence the earning or inheriting or gift receipt of funds. I will be happy to look further at individual situations. This is a very important aspect of a successful application.

Immigration AttorneyAnswered onGenerally speaking, any money obtained from legitimate source can be used for EB-5. However, there are many factors we should consider before making a sound judgment as to a specific source of income, such as rental income. How do you receive the rental income? Is it in cash, check or wire transfer? For properties bought recently which generate the rental income for you, USCIS may also want to know how you purchased those properties initially. There is no simple yes or no to your question, please consult an experienced EB-5 attorney.
