Immigration AttorneyOnly full-time permanent employees (not part-time positions and/or independent contractors) will count for EB-5 purposes. Also, the new commercial enterprise must create at least ten new jobs. Purchasing an existing apartment building does not create any new employment. Finally, it is the positions that are counted, not the actual employees who fill them. You can have two part-time employees share a full-time position, but I do not think it is possible to have one employee fill two full-time positions. They would have to work at least 70 hours per week.
