EB-5 investors from Sayreville, New Jersey, interested in making an EB-5 investment should examine the benefits of investing in an EB-5 visa project offered by EB5AN.
The entire Borough of Sayreville, including the Raritan Bay area and all of Middlesex County, falls under the New Jersey EB5AN regional center’s coverage area.
Why Do Most EB-5 Investors Make Their Investment Through Regional Centers?
Most EB-5 investors choose to invest through EB-5 regional centers because they streamline the EB-5 investment process for potential EB-5 applicants and make it easier to demonstrate the required job creation. For instance, only regional centers can use the indirect method of calculating jobs using an approved economic methodology. EB-5 investors are only required to show that their invested funds were spent in line with the business plan instead of documenting that (W-2) full-time employees were hired and remained employed for a minimum of two full years.
EB5AN has several USCIS-approved regional centers that give it a broad geographic coverage network. This network enables EB5AN to immediately sponsor strong EB-5 projects across the United States, including in Sayreville, New Jersey.

EB-5 investors can make their EB-5 investment in a project located anywhere in the United States. However, foreign nationals already living in Sayreville may want to invest in projects located closer to home. Thankfully, EB5AN has a USCIS-approved regional center that covers Sayreville.

How Can Investors Evaluate EB-5 Investment Projects?
EB-5 investors in Sayreville or greater New Jersey should consider both financial and immigration risk when selecting an EB-5 investment project.
A requirement for a successful EB-5 visa investment is that the investment capital must be at risk for the duration of the investment. This requirement is meant to ensure investors invest their capital and are not simply “buying” a U.S. green card.
“At risk” does not mean that EB-5 investors are required to invest in “risky” projects. Quite the contrary—EB-5 investors are strongly recommended to conduct thorough due diligence to minimize their exposure to as much financial and immigration risk as possible.
EB5AN and Klasko Immigration Law Partners have produced an EB-5 Project Risk Assessment Tool for EB-5 investors. This easy-to-use tool guides investors through the initial diligence of potential EB-5 projects from both financial and immigration risk perspectives.

The Culture and Economy of Sayreville, New Jersey
The Borough of Sayreville has historically been an industrial community, but an influx of technology companies and the growing population in residential areas are changing the economic landscape of this New Jersey township. The Sayreville Economic and Redevelopment Agency, or SERA, has proposed a large development project to accommodate growth. This project would clear natural forest and wetlands and install residences, public facilities, and retail and luxury businesses.
