The requirement is at least ten qualifying full-time jobs per investor. A family relationship does not reduce it.
Review the actual allocation and method
Identify how the project supports each principal’s employment requirement. Do not assume the same evidence establishes two sets of qualifying jobs without reviewing the applicable rules and facts.
The regulation requires evidence that the investor's capital was obtained through lawful means, and USCIS reads that as a request to trace the funds back far enough to be satisfied about their origin. The regional-centre programme allows indirect and induced jobs computed by economic modelling; a direct investor must count actual employees on the enterprise's payroll. The ten jobs must be full-time positions of at least thirty-five hours a week for U.S. citizens, permanent residents or other authorized workers, excluding the investor and family, and they must be created within the period the regulations allow. Build a dated review file around the project documents, capital source and route, job methodology, subscription terms, and the applicant's personal ownership records. Beyond source and path, the investor must place the required amount at risk in a new commercial enterprise that will create at least ten full-time positions for qualifying U.S. workers, and must engage in management or policy formulation.
