The Flex-Financing Program is an 18-month deposit program offered exclusively for New Course Enterprise EB-5 Projects where an EB-5 investor can file their I-526 Petition with as little as $108,333 to begin.
On November 21st, 2019, USCIS, among other changes, increased the investment minimum from $500,000 to $900,000 for TEA Projects. We believe these changes substantially reduces the total potential EB-5 applicants, especially if the EB-5 investor was required to have the full $900,000 in cash to file their I-526 Petition in order to establish a Priority Date. To continue to encourage and enable job-creation in the United States through the EB-5 Program and to further New Course Enterprise' mission to innovate within the EB-5 industry, we saw this program as necessary and vital.

You would be able to file immediately upon depositing the initial deposit into escrow.
Yes. USCIS clearly states that, “You may file this petition for yourself if you have invested or are actively in the process of investing the required investment amount in a new commercial enterprise (NCE).” In order to ensure that USCIS knows that you are “actively in the process” of investing the $900,000, we would assist you in creating a customized “Estimated Schedule of Funds Delivery” financial plan and can also provide an immigration law firm that has experience substantiating your intended source of funds to ensure the full plan will meet USCIS requirements.
You must have a net worth of at least $900,000 USD. It can be a combination of liquid and illiquid assets.
Yes, you may use a gift in order to finance your EB-5 investment. However, the details of the gift (person, timing, source of their funds, etc.) would need to be solidified prior to filing the I-526 petition as this would need to be included in the Source of Funds.
Each deposit would be held at a third-party escrow account for 5 business days, then immediately released into the Project so it can begin generating ROI.
You would not be able to withdraw the amount that was invested into the Project until the term of the investment ended, which is typically 5-7 years.
Yes, you may invest the remaining capital due at a faster rate than the timeline you committed to originally.
