Top EB-5 Markets (Recent Issuance)
The annual EB-5 visa quota is approximately 10,000 visas (including dependents). Under the per-country cap, no single country is supposed to receive more than 7.1% of the total, but unallocated visas "fall up" to heavily backlogged countries like China and India.
The Cap
How Many EB-5 Visas Are Issued Each Year?
The Immigration and Nationality Act (INA) allocates approximately 10,000 visas annually to the EB-5 category. Crucially, this number includes both the primary investors and their eligible family members (spouses and unmarried children under 21).
On average, each I-526E petition translates to about 2.5 to 3 visas. Therefore, a quota of 10,000 visas generally supports around 3,300 to 4,000 investor families per year globally.
