Florida Restaurant Franchise Group is promoting investment opportunities in their restaurant franchises through the EB-5 visa program. They are developing VooDoo BBQ & Grill and Twin Peaks franchises across Florida. The EB-5 program allows foreign investors who invest $500,000 in a US business and create 10 jobs to obtain US residency. FRFG has had success developing VooDoo locations with previous EB-5 funding. They aim to expand both VooDoo and Twin Peaks significantly across Florida to take advantage of the tourism industry. The document provides details on the companies, projects, EB-5 process and benefits of investing.

3. The EB-5 Regional Center Program
The EB-5 Regional Center Program allows
eligible aliens the opportunity to become lawful
permanent U.S. residents by investing $500,000
into a qualified EB-5 project in a USCIS
designated Regional Center and create at least 10
permanent American jobs per individual
investment.
Most Regional Centers are located within a
“Targeted Employment Area” which is an area
that, at the time of investment, is a rural area or
an area experiencing unemployment of at least
150 percent of the national average rate.
As such, the EB-5 Regional Center Program is one of the most flexible immigration programs in the
world, allowing foreigners to gain permanent United States residency for themselves, their spouse,
and any unmarried children under the age of 21, through their EB-5 investment.
Created in 1990, the EB-5 program has contributed more than $1.5 billion into the U.S. economy and
has resulted in the realization of American dream for over 2,000 foreign immigrants in the last year
alone. Below are some of the benefits enjoyed by the EB-5 investors:

Quickest Way to Obtain Permanent U.S.
Residency for you, your spouse and all
unmarried children under the age of 21

5. EB-5 Project
Structure
Florida Restaurant Franchise
Group EB-5 Projects are
administered through the Palm
Beach Regional Center – a
USCIS approved and federally
designated Regional Center. The
projects are located in cities like
Miami, Fort Lauderdale and
West Palm Beach, which are
some of the most wealthy and
important economic areas of the
United States. All of the
development sites have been
certified and designated as
being located in a “TEA” zone,
therefore qualifying for the
$500,000
investment
requirement.
FRFG projects are typically
structured in the form of a loan,
for a period of 5 years. The loan
will be used for the acquisition,
construction and operation of
the restaurants. In some cases,
the investment is backed by real
estate and typically has the first
lien on all assets of the business.
During the course of the loan,
the investors receive a fixed
interest rate payment, which is
accrued
annually.
The
distribution of typically 2% is
paid every 6 months.
Once the conditions on the
green card have been removed
and the loan has reached its
maturity, the developers would
then refer to the available
sources to repay the loan to the
investors.
For
example,
operational profits accrued
during the years of operation
may be used. Other options
include the refinancing of the
loan or ultimately the sale of the
restaurant and the sale of the
proceeds used to repay the loan.

10. Frequently asked questions
Below are some of the most commonly asked questions regarding the EB-5 Visa Program and
the projects offered by the Florida Restaurants Franchise Group. For additional information,
please contact Florida Restaurant Franchise Group directly at info@eb5restaurants.com
How long does the EB-5 application process take?
The life cycle of an EB-5 based petition is divided into two parts – the approval of the I526, and the actual adjustment of status or consular processing. The initial part, which is
the processing of the I-526, can take from 3 months to 12 months. The approval of the I526 is a crucial part of the petition, as USCIS evaluates, at this time, whether the EB-5
investment follows the guidelines imposed by law.
What is “lawful source of funds”?
In order for the EB-5 investor to become a US legal resident or green card holder, the EB5 investor must be able to show to USCIS that the capital invested in the job-creating
entity was obtained through lawful means. Income tax returns, evidence of acquisition
and sales of property (in the US and abroad), and evidence of gift of funds are among
some of the documents your immigration attorney will likely request in order to establish
that
the
capital
invested
was
earned
through
lawful
means.
What happens if the investor’s green card is denied?
Since investors are fearful that they will lose their money if their green card application
(I-526) is denied, we have established a 100% refund policy of all investment funds and
applicable fees. To further assure approval, we have employed the services of some of the
most experienced EB-5 attorneys in the country to review each investor’s petition before
it is submitted to USCIS to help assure a streamlined approval process and reduce the
chances for a denial. Please reference all offering documents for complete explanation of
refund policy.
What is your experience with developing and running a franchise?
Florida Restaurant Franchise Group has a combined 30 years of success in running
various national franchise operations. Most recently, Joe Sloboda and his team developed
and operated the fast food concept of Five Guys Burgers and Fries in the greater Miami
area. Five Guys has been one of the fastest growing restaurant chains in the United States
and has approximately 900 stores. The location ran by Mr. Flechner in Miami Beach, was
in the top 5 highest-grossing stores in the country.
