It can be rural areas or areas in which a high rate of unemployment. Invested funds help to create jobs or to create conditions for their emergence, for example such as construction of roads and development of infrastructure.
In this case for tracking of effective use of investments, the state involves the third party - the Regional center which "works" with the received amount. The investor can not participate in the future of the means at all. But in that case, the Regional center which in fact is the third commercial party can lead to the fact that money "will just burn down" and in treasured two years the investor will not receive the Green card. For this reason in your interests to keep a situation under control.
The second option of investment - to invest 1,000,000 dollars. And the investor has the right to choose independently the region and the project for insertion of this amount. The offer is relevant also for those who are going to create own business in the territory of the USA.

- Creation of the business plan confirming that invested funds will "work". It is necessary to prove efficiency of future project. The planned income shall be at least 200,000 dollars a year.
One more important point is the requirement of personal investment, that is money shall be received from the individual, but not from the company.

The investor will need serious preparation, but for those who aimed to move to the USA to a permanent residence, the similar method is considered one of the most reliable.
Advantages which the visa of EV-5 gives:
First, obtaining the right to the temporary residence, both for the investor, and for his family (the wife and children till 21 year). And after five years of full-time residence in the territory of the country, all above-mentioned it is necessary to receive the passport of the citizen of the United States of America. Secondly, after obtaining the passport, you become the full member of the American society and have an opportunity to choose the place for accommodation and to get an education in America.

For those who did not decide on desire of full-time residence in America yet there are some more types of the visas assuming temporary residence and a possibility of business at the USA. For example, visa of E-2. For its receiving the American government obliges the investor to enclose "N" an amount of money in development of any business operating in the territory of the country. Concrete rates for investments by this visa do not exist. The investor independently chooses any business direction and undertakes to invest the amount equal to the cost of this business. Thus, the amount of the invested amount can be cardinal below the amounts stated for receipt of a visa of EV-5.
This visa, unfortunately, is not suitable for citizens of Russia. In the list of the countries with which at the USA the International treaty assuming receipt of a visa of E-2 works there is no Russia. At the list there are only some countries of the former Soviet Union and the CIS: Armenia, Estonia, Azerbaijan, Moldova, Ukraine, Georgia, Kazakhstan, Lithuania, Kyrgyzstan and Latvia.

In that case you can count on the visa of L-1 which gives the chance to be in the territory of the country during the long period (up to 7 years). In a year after activity of the company proves the viability and effectiveness, the investor has the right to submit the petition on obtaining the Green card. One of the main conditions is interaction of the main and subsidiary company during the whole time.
What is necessary for receipt of a visa of L-1:
- The immigrant shall hold a "high" position in the company outside the USA;
- The company which you open in America shall be the affiliated organization or branch of the company functioning in the territory of other country.
- During the whole time both companies shall continue the activity in both states;
Thus, moving to the USA, the investor expands activity of "the head company" and supervises its work in the territory of America. Making out the visa of L-1, the immigrant shall provide the detailed business plan guaranteeing effective activity of the company. For receipt of a visa of it it is enough and when it is in a couple of years necessary to prolong the visa, it is necessary to prove that the enterprise makes profit. The specific amount which the profit of the enterprise shall equal is not specified in the legislation.

High business activity of the company will become the powerful reason at submission of documents on obtaining the Green card.
