USCIS Requires The Investor To Do The Following For The Business
The investor must make all major decision, such as which logistic partner to work with, which type of delivery to do, which type of insurance to purchase.
The Daily Business Operation
The employees will do all the day-to-day work, ranging from communication with the logistic partner to driving the trucks.
The investor may do the day-to-day work, but this is not required.
Earning Your Investment Back
$500,000 is usually earned back in 4-5 years if it is operated well (this earning is before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization). This is not a guarantee. This number may change depending on the economy. (You must speak to the attorney at Kenzl Law Offices to discuss the details; only qualified investors are allowed to invest.)
The Risks
All business has risks, and as required by USCIS, each EB-5 investment must be "at risk". (If you have a “guarantee” on your investment, then you are not eligible for a green card.)
However, it is smart to minimize the risk by contracting and selling your services before you invest, which is what you would be doing here.
Please speak to the Kenzl attorney regarding how much risk there is.
Logistics Business is Better than Regional Centers

| Profitable At the Start? | Yes |
Impossible |
| Business life Cycle | 5-years | Usually 30-years. (The longer it is, the longer it takes to earn back your investment.) |
| Business Exit Strategy | Earn back your $500,000 in 4-5 years | Borrow money, or sell the entire business to pay you. But there is no obligation to borrow any money, or to pay you anything. Your exit depends on how nice the general partner is to the investors. |

| Approved and supported By Federal and local Government? | Yes | Yes |
