EB-5 regional center program is gradually losing ground in China due to the uncertainties around EB-5 legislation in the US. More agents are turning to other alternative programs. Chinese immigration agencies are not only selling real estate properties in Cyprus, Greece or Spain, but also promoting passport programs for some tiny Caribbean island countries. However it is a big news that Chinese immigration agents have recently started selling insurance policies by working with overseas insurance agencies, thousands of the mainland Chinese residents are buying life insurance policies every month. They are also looking into medical tourism in South Korea and the United States. Many high net worth individuals are coming to the US for medical treatment in some of the best clinics in the country. According to the Chinese government, only 5% Chinese citizens have their own passport, it is expected US continues to be the most popular destination for Chinese population in next ten years due to 10-year visa granted to Chinese tourists and business executives.

Worldway, Henry Global, Visas Consulting, Globe Visa, and another dozen of service providers, are key members of Win Fund Overseas Investment Group.
