What if the created jobs aren't permanent? I can get the I-829 as long as a EB-5 Regional Center creates 10 job positions indirectly. But if the EB-5 project finishes, the 10 jobs position will disappear; in this situation, can I remove the conditions on my permanent residency? How long do the 10 jobs have to last?

“Permanent” jobs are defined by USCIS and are not really “permanent” in the traditional sense. Jobs should last at least 2 years to be considered for EB-5 purposes. We would coordinate with an EB-5 economist to review the job creation and timelines.

In a Regional Center EB-5 project, the required number of jobs are calculated in a number of different ways. Based upon an acceptable Economic Methodology indirect jobs may be calculated. However, even under these circumstances the jobs need to be created and maintained until I-829 adjudication.
