What EB-5 Is
Created by Congress in 1990, the EB-5 program grants conditional permanent residency to investors who place capital at risk in a U.S. enterprise that creates at least ten full-time American jobs. The EB-5 Reform and Integrity Act of 2022 modernized the program — today the minimum is $800,000 in a Targeted Employment Area (TEA) or $1,050,000 elsewhere.
A regional center is a USCIS-designated entity that pools EB-5 capital into approved projects and may count direct, indirect, and induced jobs toward the requirement — the structure most family investors use.
The Pathway
- Invest — capital placed at risk in a regional-center project
- File I-526E — petition as a regional-center investor
- Conditional green card — typically two years
- File I-829 — prove the jobs were created; conditions removed
- Permanent residency — and, in time, eligibility for citizenship
Immigration timelines and outcomes are governed by USCIS and visa availability — they are facts of the program, not promises of any issuer.
Jobs Are the Point
EB-5 is a jobs program wearing an investment suit — and Canine Capital’s version takes that literally. Bond proceeds develop brand-new boarding kennel businesses, end to end:
- Land purchase — site selection in underserved growth markets
- Permitting & development — ground-up construction of the facility
- Community seasoning — opening, staffing, and early operations that turn a new build into an established local business
- Sale to an operator — a turn-key boarding kennel business changes hands
Each EB-5 approved project must create at least ten full-time American jobs per investor — construction trades first, then the permanent care staff who run the facility. This is legal family immigration through investment in rural development and job creation.
At Canine Capital
The CC Immigration & Jobs Bond™ — 2027 Series EB-5 — is planned from CC EB-5 Regional Center, LLC: a 5-year bond at a 7.5% fixed contractual coupon, $800,000 minimum, Cash-Pay election, in $1,000 denominations, currently in its interest period.
The lifecycle completes a flywheel: finished, seasoned facilities are sold to boarding-kennel operators — and some, though not all, of those operators take their acquisition financing from Canine Capital’s NBFI credit facility. The development arm builds the industry; the lending arm finances it.
Families should engage their own immigration counsel; Canine Capital provides the investment vehicle and the jobs engine, not immigration advice.
A pathway with purpose.
