Affiliated Job-Creating Entity From The RIA

The term “affiliated job-creating entity” is an important term of the EB-5 Reform and Integrity Act of 2022 (“RIA”). Under the EB-5 Immigrant Investor Program, foreign investors who participate make an investment in a new business that employs U.S. workers and can obtain lawful permanent residence in the United States. A company that is owned, run, or controlled by individuals associated with the new business endeavor or the EB-5 Regional Center is considered an “affiliated job-creating entity” in this context. According to this, a company falls under this category if it has ties to the people who control the business or Regional Center.

These associated entities play a critical role in achieving the job creation objectives of the EB-5 program. These entities are not isolated in their activities; rather, they are closely linked to new business ventures and regional hubs that manage the flow of capital and ensure the development of employment-generating projects.

The RIA protects the integrity of the EB-5 Program by ensuring that these businesses are managed properly and that investments are directed toward job creation in a way that is both efficient and legal.


Investors must understand how companies that create jobs are set up. It dictates the utilization of their capital and the creation of jobs that meet EB-5 Program conditions. To safeguard the investors and the success of the projects they support, Regional Centers must make sure that these associated firms abide by all applicable laws.

Understanding Form I-864A: Contract Between Household Member and Sponsor

For many family-based immigrants applying for a Green Card, a key step in the process is the submission of Form I-864, Affidavit of Support (“I-864”). This is a legally binding contract in which the sponsoring family member (“Sponsor”) agrees to financially support the intending immigrant (“Beneficiary”). However, in some cases, the “Sponsor” alone may not have sufficient income or assets to meet the required financial support threshold. That is where Form I-864A, Contract Between Sponsor and Household Member (“Form I-864A”) comes into play. A Form I-864A,  is used when a household member—such as a spouse, adult child, parent, or other relative residing at the same address—agrees to combine their income with the Sponsors to meet the minimum financial requirement. The household member must be willing to commit to support the Beneficiary alongside the Sponsor by signing the Form I-864A. It is important to understand the difference between the I-864 and
