SAN JUAN, PUERTO RICO, UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, November 1, 2020 /EINPresswire.com/ -- EB5 Affiliate Network (EB5AN), a leading EB-5 consultancy, regional center operator, and fund manager, will host a free webinar, “EB-5 Source of Funds – Best Practices for Russian and Eastern European Nationals,” with Irina Rostova of the Rostova Westerman Law Group (RWLG) and Charles Raether of AmLaw Group, on Thursday, October 5, at 2:00 PM EST.

An EB-5 visa requires a minimum investment of $900,000 or $1.8 million. Investors may use funds from a variety of sources, but the sources and flow of funds must be fully documented. U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) applies considerable scrutiny to EB-5 green card applications, and the most common reason for EB-5 visa denials is unacceptable or inadequate source-of-funds documentation. It is imperative that people thinking of immigrating with an EB-5 visa know the rules.

“This is an important topic for EB-5 investors to understand. I am excited to be presenting on it,” said Irina Rostova, founding partner of RWLG. Charles Raether, founder of managing partner of AmLaw Group, concurs: “Source of funds is a big issue for Russians seeking U.S. residency through investment. This webinar is a must-watch event.” According to Sam Silverman, managing partner of EB5AN, the EB-5 visa is a popular choice for Russian nationals and people from other Eastern European countries. “We’ve had a lot of interest from people in Moscow, St. Petersburg, and other parts of the Russian Federation, as well as Ukraine, Romania, Poland, and Belarus,” said Silverman.

The EB-5 visa offers a clear pathway to U.S. residency for foreign nationals who make a job-creating investment in a U.S. project or business enterprise. Since the program’s inception in 1990, thousands of individuals and families have used the EB-5 visa to immigrate from abroad or transition from a nonimmigrant visa such as H-1 and H-1B. The program has received renewed interest in recent months as federal policies restricting employment-based immigration have led work-visa holders to seek alternative pathways to U.S. residency.
