Fraud has also been a problem with EB-5. Companies promise to create the jobs but instead they run off with the money.
Back at the hotel, Svetlana Anikeeva says she hopes to find out within the next six months if her permanent visa is approved. For now, she's enjoying watching her 13-year-old daughter, Nina, soak up life in the U.S.
She's a sports person. She's in synchronized swimming.
Nina is about the same age as her mother was when she came here to study all those years ago.
She's actually just been accepted to the gifted student program for summer in Princeton University, which would be unbelievable for me at the age of 13. I'm very proud of her.
For Anikeeva and other globally well-to-do from China to India, an American education alone is worth the half-million-dollar price tag.
For NPR News, I'm Jennifer Wing in Seattle.
