If your investor or project meet the requirements of both Opportunity Zone and EB-5 programs, the investor and project will qualify. We are currently working on a hotel project that is both in an Opportunity Zone and using EB-5 financing.
Ask A Question
How could we invest into an EB-5 project that is also in an opportunity zone and enjoy benefits of both programs?
Could we invest into an EB-5 project that is also in an opportunity zone? Are there any such projects or opportunities to invest into and how can we best find them?
Answers
Yes, you can invest in a project that obtains EB-5 and OZ benefits. I am not aware of a site that has combined projects.
Each program has its own set of rules. If your project satisfies both sets of rules, you can take advantage of both programs on the same project.
As long as you meet the requirements of both programs, there is nothing preventing a taxpayer from taking advantage of both. I am not currently aware of any projects that qualify for both.
