[Q] Can I work for another employer after I invest? When can I get back my EB-5 money?
[Q] I would like to invest $ 500,000 and get the conditional green card. I have 2 questions I didn't find in any Faqs:
1- when I got the conditional green card for my investment, could I get hired by a US employer and do another kind of job? Example: I invest in a *** Resort project, I get my conditional green card and my SSN, after that can I be an employee of Wells Fargo and work for them?
2- when is my investment "due"? When can I get my money back? After i got my unconditional green card?
Answers:
1. Being an EB-5 investor does not prohibit you from working for another US employer or staring another business.
2. The EB-5 project may have its own requirement, but generally speaking, there is no prohibition against an EB-5 investor getting his or her money back after getting I-829 approved. However, most EB-5 project requires a loan of at least 5 years for various reasons.
