On July 1, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) published long-awaited notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) to the Federal Register. The IIUSA Public Policy Committee will be working on comments to submit within the 60-day comment period.

The new report, developed independently by researchers and economists at Fourth Economy, shows the EB-5 program generated $75.2 billion in private investment, created 1.7 million American jobs, contributed $184 billion to GDP, and raised $14.5 billion in tax revenues from 2016 to 2019 alone — all at no cost to U.S. taxpayers. The EB-5 program’s impact was felt nationwide, with states like California, New York, Texas, and Florida seeing billions in investments and hundreds of thousands of jobs created.

Additionally, data analysis shows that each EB-5 investor created 45 American jobs, and that every $500,000 invested generated an additional $1.6 million in private capital beyond the required investment, demonstrating the program’s powerful multiplier effect.

Upcoming EB-5 Experts Webinar:

On Tuesday, September 22, 2026, IIUSA hosted a webinar to explore the deeper message behind the NPRM and what it signals about the future of the program.

Now that the comment period has ended and IIUSA has submitted its thorough, thoughtful, and collaborative comments to DHS, we will host a discussion digging deeper into the proposed changes to the EB-5 Program.
