On October 15, 2024, CanAm hosted a comprehensive discussion on the growing trend of H-1B professionals exploring the EB-5 Immigrant Investor Program as a pathway to U.S. permanent residency. The event featured insights from Pete Calabrese, CEO of CanAm Investor Services, and George Ganey, seasoned EB-5 immigration attorney, who shared expert perspectives on the advantages of transitioning from H-1B to EB-5.

The conversation highlighted the challenges many H-1B visa holders face, including long green card backlogs, employer dependency, and limited job mobility. Pete and George explained how recent EB-5 program reforms—such as concurrent filing, priority processing for rural projects, and enhanced transparency—make EB-5 a more viable and flexible alternative.

Learn about funding strategies, including partial investments and loan options, that can help H-1B professionals begin their EB-5 journey without needing to provide the entire investment upfront.

Watch the full video recording of this session, where Pete and George take a deep dive into how EB-5 can empower skilled professionals to take control of their careers, secure permanent residency, and create a more certain future for themselves and their families.
