David Enterline, Esq., speaks at EB-5 Seminar in Jakarta, Indonesia

Enterline and Partners Consulting Managing Partner David Enterline spoke at an EB-5 seminar in Jakarta, Indonesia on May 25, 2019. David was invited to attend by one of the oldest and most successful EB-5 regional centers. The event was sponsored by one of the largest immigration consulting companies in South East Asia.

Traditionally, Indonesia has not been a large market for EB-5 investors with only 65 EB-5 visas having been issued between fiscal year 2010 to fiscal year 2018 (see chart). At an estimated average of 3 visas per investor-family, this would indicate about 22 investors over these last 9 years. Even with the holy month of Ramadan and political unrest following Indonesian’s Presidential election, with 30 people in attendance it was a positive turnout and shows the country is a potential growth market for Indonesian’s seeking to obtain U.S. permanent residence and green cards via the EB-5 immigrant investor visa.

Can the Intending Immigrant Help the Sponsor Meet the Income Requirements?

In family-based immigration cases, a central component of this process is the Form I-864, Affidavit of Support (“I-864”). This legally binding contract is required to demonstrate that the intending immigrant (the “Beneficiary”) has adequate financial support from the sponsoring family member (the “Sponsor”) through income and/or assets, and therefore the Beneficiary is unlikely to become a public charge (rely on government welfare for support). Through the completion of Form I-864, the Sponsor assumes substantial financial obligations enforceable under U.S. law. If the Sponsor does not have enough income or assets, under certain conditions, the Beneficiary’s income or assets may be used to help meet the Sponsor’s financial requirement. If the Beneficiary is the Sponsor’s spouse, their income may be counted if it will continue from the same source after obtaining lawful permanent resident status. If the Beneficiary is another relative, such as a child, parent or brother or sister, two

Is the EB-5 Immigrant Investor Visa for the U.S. a Secure Path to a Green Card?

The United States continues to be a top destination for individuals seeking world-class healthcare, top-tier education, and a stable environment for business and investment. For many individuals and families, investment-based immigration offers a convenient opportunity to secure lawful permanent residency in the United States.

Distinguishing U.S. Immigrant Visa Categories: Family, Employment, and Investment

When people think of U.S. immigration, the first thing that comes to mind oftentimes is Lawful Permanent Residence (“Green Card.”) However, the journey to permanent residency is not a one-size-fits-all road. The Green Card system can be divided into several visa categories, each with its own purpose, requirements, and process. Knowing how these categories differ is a must and making the right choice may shorten waiting times, avoid unnecessary setbacks, and help immigrant visa applicants and their families achieve their long-term goals. In 2025, the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (“USCIS”) rolled out updates that streamlined certain steps while adding new layers of review in others. In this article, we will walk through the three main options: family-based; employment-based; and investment-based immigrant visas, enabling you to understand the differences and see where recent changes may affect your path forward. The Main Types of U.S. Immigrant Visas There are several
