在加拿大

受人之托，看了先锋广场项目的一些文件，有些疑问和大家分享。这个是过桥贷款项目，4000万EB-5资金主要是替换项目方的前期投入。移民局对过桥贷款有明确的规定，就是在获得过桥贷款的时候，有明确的文件说明，过桥贷款将由EB-5资金代替。 项目方有什么样的文件来证明这种事先约定。另外，移民局要求EB-5资金和就业的产生有nexus的关系。 这个商业住宅混合开发项目，应该依靠的是建筑花费就业。 只有EB-5资金花费在建筑工程上，移民局才有可能认定EB-5的花费产生了就业。如果EB-5只是替换了开发商的前期soft cost， EB-5的资金和就业报告里的就业推算就没有什么直接关联了。这一点上投资人需要一个资深的EB-5律师来判断了。这个项目EB-5的资金没有抵押，资金安全只担保到526批准。不知道这个区域中心是否已经有过526批准的项目？Bridge FinancingQ: Under what circumstances will USCIS approve bridge financing? Will the memo address this? This does not appear to be covered with adequate specificity in the last iteration of the policy memo. Stakeholders are not aware of any written guidance on bridge financing other than am AAO decision on the Victorville case, and this is an extreme example with specific facts. Of the two memos in 2009 (June and December) on construction, the December 2009 memo superseded the June memo, but stakeholders continue to receive RFEs referencing the June memo.A: Pursuant to 8 C.F.R § 204.6(j)(4)(i), the new commercial enterprise, not the EB-5 investors, must create the requisite employment. As such, it is acceptable for the developer or the principal of the new commercial enterprise, either directly or through a separate job-creating entity, to utilize interim, temporary or bridge financing – in the form of either debt or equity – prior to receipt of EB-5 capital. If the project commences based on the bridge financing prior to the receipt of the EB-5 capital and subsequently replaces it with EB-5 capital, the new commercial enterprise still gets credit for the job creation under the regulations.This policy will be issued in the forthcoming EB-5 policy memo in Section C, the Creation of Jobs section:“It is important to recognize that while the immigrant’s investment must result in the creation of jobs for qualifying employees, it is the new commercial enterprise that creates the jobs. This distinction is best illustrated by an example:Ten immigrant investors seek to establish a hotel as their new commercial enterprise. The establishment of the new hotel requires capital to pay financing costs, purchasing the land, developing the plans, obtaining the licenses, building the structure, taking care of the grounds, staffing the hotel, and the many other types of expenses involved in the development and operation of a new hotel. The immigrant’s investments can go to pay part or all of any of these expenses.”

This distinction is best illustrated in the non-regional center context by an example:Ten immigrant investors seek to establish a hotel as their new commercial enterprise. The establishment of the new hotel requires capital to pay financing costs to unrelated third parties, purchasing the land, developing the plans, obtaining the licenses, building the structure, taking care of the grounds, staffing the hotel, and the many other types of expenses involved in the development and operation of a new hotel. The immigrant’s investments can go to pay part or all of any of these expenses. Each immigrant’s investment of the required amount of capital helps the new commercial enterprise – the new hotel – create ten jobs. The ten immigrants’ investments must result in the new hotel’s creation of 100 jobs for qualifying employees (ten jobs resulting per each individual immigrant’s capital investment).
