SAN DIEGO - May 1, 2013 - PRLog -- At Guerra & Johnson, P.C., the San Diego immigration lawyers have more than two decades of knowledge and experience at handling a variety of immigration issues. Recently, one of their legal advocates, Brian Johnson has received verification as a EB-5 investor lawyer denoting that he is more than capable at assisting those seeking residency through investment. It can be a highly complicated process to pursue an EB-5 visa, requiring the assistance of an informed investor attorney to help you navigate the application process, filing the forms on time and meeting all additional requirements. By having an immigration lawyer that has been trained specifically in EB-5 visas, your chances of obtaining this Green Card could be significantly improved.

Before pursuing an EB-5 investor visa, it is important to understand what it is and what types of investments it involves. The United States created a Green Card program to help further promote business and new jobs throughout the country in the form of the EB-5.  It is an excellent opportunity for individuals living in other parts of the world to obtain lawful permanent residency, as well as a Green Card, by making a substantial investment in the U.S. They are required to make investments of $500,000 in lower economic regions that have been designated as Targeted Employment Areas (TEA). This EB-5 investment must be placed into either a certified regional center or other legitimate investment, and lead to a minimum of 10 new, full-time jobs that will last for at least 2 years. Regional centers are decided upon by the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) and typically seek to promote economic growth. They may also invest a minimum of $1 million anywhere in the country without having to go through a regional center.

For further information regarding the investor visa process, it is highly encouraged that you speak with certified EB-5 investor attorney, Brian Johnson. As a compassionate and approachable immigration legal representative, Attorney Johnson is more than capable not only with assisting immigrants with the EB-5 visa process, but with all other non-immigrant and employment based immigrant visas.
