US ups EB-5 visa threshold
美國提高并完善EB-5
US Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley and Ranking Member Patrick Leahy introduced bi-partisan legislation to extend and improve the job-creating immigrant investor visa program, known as EB-5, which is set to expire in September.
美國的創造就業投資移民簽證項目，即EB-5，將于9月到期。國會參議院司法委員會主席格拉斯利、資深成員萊希日前聯合提出一項兩黨支持的議案，延長并完善EB-5項目。
The bill will extend the program for five years and raise the investment threshold to $800,000 for targeted employment areas and $1.2m for non-TEAs from the current $500,000 and $1m, respectively.
該議案將"目標就業區"的投資門檻由現行的50萬美元提高至80萬美元，將"非目標就業區"的投資金額從100萬美元提高到120萬美元。
It also will provide increased authority to the Department Of Homeland Security to deny or terminate applications where there is fraud, criminal misuse, or a threat to public safety or national security.
議案還同時賦予國土安全部更大權限，可否決或終止涉及欺詐、犯罪分子濫用、威脅公共安全和美國國家安全的投資移民申請。
