About EB-5 for Philippines

EB-5 is for immigrant investors who create jobs. It receives 7.1% of the employment-based limit; since the EB-5 Reform and Integrity Act of 2022, 32% is reserved for rural, high-unemployment and infrastructure investments, and this page tracks the unreserved 68%. For issues before 2022 it uses the bulletin's non-regional-center EB-5 row.

The Philippines has its own column because demand from people born there is higher than the per-country limit of 7% of all preference visas.

The final action date has been "Current" in every one of the 133 bulletins since 2015, so applicants have not had to wait for a cutoff in this column.
