EB5 (EB-5) Visa Business Plan

Business Plans for EB-5 Direct Investment

Under the EB5 (EB-5) program, entrepreneurs (and their spouses and unmarried children under 21) are eligible to apply for a conditional green card (permanent residence) if they make the necessary investment in a commercial enterprise in the United States, and plan to create or preserve 10 permanent full-time jobs for qualified U.S. workers.

EB-5 Direct Investment Business Plan
Our Matter of Ho-compliant EB-5 business plans are extremely detailed, credible, and clearly demonstrate the nexus between the investment and the creation of ten full-time, permanent positions.
Our comprehensive business plans include a detailed description of the client’s business, its products and services, and a market analysis. They also feature the names of competing businesses and their relative strengths and weaknesses, as well as a comparison of the competition’s products and pricing structures.
Additionally, our EB-5 business plans include 5-year staffing, revenue, and profit and loss projections, along with corresponding reasonable assumptions.


Our team at Visa Business Plans has drafted many comprehensive, credible and consistent business plans that demonstrate compliance with EB-5 visa regulations, and provide the business information that USCIS officials need to evaluate the EB-5 petition.

Matter of Ho Compliant Business Plan

A business plan that demonstrates Matter of Ho compliance is a fundamental requirement when applying for an EB-5 (EB5) visa. An EB5 business plan that is compliant with Matter of Ho is a comprehensive, detailed, credible document demonstrating the job-creation potential of the new commercial enterprise.

"Matter of Ho" refers to the key requirements of a EB-5 business plan which come from precedent rulings made by the USCIS Administrative Appeals Office (AAO) in an EB-5 case in 1998. Investors seeking approval from USCIS must be able to show that they satisfy all requirements.

Below are some of the requirements for Matter of Ho compliance. The business plan must:

  • Have a clear summary that describes the business, its products & services, and its objectives
  • Clearly demonstrate how the EB-5 investment will be applied and how it will result in creating jobs
  • Provide an organizational structure, staffing requirements, job descriptions
  • Provide details on contracts, marketing strategy, advertising, and more
  • Include a comprehensive market analysis -- information such as naming competitors in the industry, comparing competitors' products and pricing, describing the target market, and more
  • Have detailed 5-year profit and loss, cash flow, and balance sheet
  • Be detailed enough to allow USCIS officials to derive reasonable inferences about the business plan’s compliance with EB5 (EB-5) requirements
  • Be fully supported by verifiable sources and industry standards.
