Although International Businesses and Investor can use the five employment based categories, it may be beneficial to entertain a category that is available to investors who create employment for U.S. workers. To qualify as an Investor, one must invest $1,000,000 in a new business and create employment for at least ten U.S. workers or $500,000 in a rural areas or areas of high unemployment. The advantages of qualifying under this category are that the investor does not have to obtain a labor certification, which means no approval required from Department of Labor. In addition, the investor can obtain permanent residency if the investor can prove that it created a viable business that sustained beyond the two-year period. The disadvantages are that it requires investment. In addition to requiring investment funds initially, it requires proof of sustainability of the business in addition to creating employment for U.S. workers.
