In many cases a preliminary EB-5 economic analysis is a great place to start when planning an EB-5 project. The job creation report is a key component of an EB-5 deal and obtaining a reasonable estimate of the number of jobs to be created early in the process can save a lot of time, money, and heartburn.

Impact DataSource offers an inexpensive preliminary EB-5 economic analysis to assist in planning prospective EB-5 projects.

Impact DataSource is a recognized industry leader in EB-5 and has been recognized multiple times as a top economist in the EB-5 industry.

Additional Eb-5 Services

RFE & NOID Assistance

Difficult RFE? Under a tight deadline?

We are often brought in to help clean up the economic study that was done by a different consultant as part of a Request for Evidence (RFE) or Notice of Intent to Deny (NOID). We understand that these are often time sensitive: we are able to work quickly to help you respond to USCIS in time.

I-924A Assistance

Let us handle the job creation aspect of your annual reporting requirements.

Each year, regional centers are required to file an I-924A. Part of the I-924A involves providing the estimated jobs that the regional center’s projects have created during the year. Our customized reports are created to satisfy that aspect of the I-924A requirement.

I-829 Assistance

Time to prove the jobs were created? We can help.

It’s I-829 time and you need to be ready to prove that the necessary jobs were created. We provide customized reporting to help you with that very important step in ensuring your investors get their green cards.

We check to make sure all of your bases are covered.
