Download or read book The Department of Homeland Security s Proposed Regulations Reforming the Investor Visa Program written by Committee on the Judiciary House of Representatives and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2017-05-30 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1990, when Congress created the EB-5 program, the goal was to create new employment opportunities for American workers. Two years later, Congress established a pilot program which allowed investors to pool their investments in regional centers. The theory was simple: by allocating investors to pool their funds, greater investment would occur, and jobs for American workers would flourish. Twenty-five years later, this pilot program still exists, but it has strayed from its original intent. There are many problems with the regional center program. Jobs created are not direct and verifiable. Less than 10 percent invest in true high-unemployment areas. Almost every EB-5 project uses gerrymandering to qualify as distressed. A luxury hotel in Beverly Hills uses gerrymandering to claim it is located in a distressed community, one of the wealthiest communities in America. This type of abuse represents almost 90 percent of the entire EB-5 program. Currently, aliens must invest $1 million unless they invest in projects in rural or high-unemployment areas, in which case they can invest $500,000. Almost all visas now go to aliens investing at the lower level, meant for rural and poor areas, even when the resulting projects are built in prosperous areas. Investment funds are not adequately vetted, and there are no prohibitions against foreign governments owning or operating regional centers. Background checks aren't required for anyone associated with regional centers. This raises questions about whether foreign governments are selling U.S. green cards to their citizens. Former Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson published proposed rule changes to the regional center program that would stop gerrymandering and increase investment levels. They are a vital first step to returning the program to its original intent, creating new employment for American workers and infusing capital into the distressed rural areas.

Download or read book Employment based Immigration written by Roy Mcguire and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 119 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Congress created the Employment-Based Fifth Preference Immigrant Investor Program (EB-5 Program) visa category to promote job creation by immigrant investors in exchange for visas providing lawful permanent residency. Participants are required to invest $1 million in a business that is to create at least 10 jobs--or $500,000 for businesses located in an area that is rural or has experienced unemployment of at least 150 percent of the national average rate. Upon meeting program requirements, immigrant investors are eligible for conditional status to live and work in the United States and can apply to remove the conditions for lawful permanent residency after 2 years. This book examines U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) efforts under the EB-5 Program to work with interagency partners to assess fraud and other related risks; address any identified fraud risks; and increase its capacity to verify job creation and use a valid and reliable methodology to report economic benefits. This book also review the EB-5 Adjudications Policy Memorandum, which is the guiding document for USCIS administration of the EB-5 program.
Download or read book Edgeless Cities written by Robert E. Lang and published by Brookings Institution Press. This book was released on 2003-02-25 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Edgeless cities are a sprawling form of development that accounts for the bulk of office space found outside of downtowns. Every major metropolitan area has them: vast swaths of isolated buildings that are neither pedestrian friendly, nor easily accessible by public transit, and do not lend themselves to mixed use. While critics of urban sprawl tend to focus on the social impact of "edge cities"—developments that combine large-scale office parks with major retail and housing—edgeless cities, despite their ubiquity, are difficult to define or even locate. While they stay under the radar of critics, they represent a significant departure in the way American cities are built and are very likely the harbingers of a suburban future almost no one has anticipated. Edgeless Cities explores America's new metropolitan form by examining the growth and spatial structure of suburban office space across the nation. Inspired by Myron Orfield's groundbreaking Metropolitics (Brookings, 1997), Robert Lang uses data, illustrations, maps, and photos to delineate between two types of suburban office development—bounded and edgeless. The book covers the evolving geography of rental office space in thirteen of the country's largest markets, which together contain more than 2.6 billion square feet of office space and 26,000 buildings: Atlanta, Boston, Chicago, Dallas, Denver, Detroit, Houston, Los Angeles, Miami, New York, Philadelphia, San Francisco, and Washington. Lang discusses how edgeless cities differ from traditional office areas. He also provides an overview of national, regional, and metropolitan office markets, covers ways to map and measure them, and discusses the challenges urban policymakers and practitioners will face as this new suburban form continues to spread. Until now, edgeless cities have been the unstudied phenomena of the new metropolis. Lang's conceptual approach reframes the current thinking on suburban sprawl and provides a valuable resource for

Download or read book Too Much of a Good Thing Prudent Management of Inflows under Economic Citizenship Programs written by Xin Xu and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2015-05-01 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Economic Citizenship Programs (ECPs) have recently been proliferating, with large and potentially volatile inflows of investment and fiscal revenues generating significant benefits for small economies, but also posing substantial challenges. This paper discusses recent developments and implications of such programs for fiscal discipline and the real economy, including risks to macroeconomic and financial stability, with a focus on small state economies. It discusses the prudent management of these programs, overviews strategies to minimize risks to various sectors, and addresses potential governance and integrity challenges. The paper proposes a framework for managing inflows and savings from ECPs to contain macroeconomic risks, and it recommends the establishment of a sovereign wealth fund (SWF) where such revenues are large and persistent.
