The qualifying capital amounts — US$1,050,000 standard or US$800,000 for a qualifying targeted employment area or infrastructure project under the 2022 Reform and Integrity Act — which carry statutory adjustment provisions.
Re-check the threshold before funds move
The thresholds are set by statute and subject to adjustment, so a figure that was current during planning may not be current when capital is committed. For a household extracting funds from a corporation over a fiscal cycle, that gap is real. Separate from the capital sit government filing fees, published in the USCIS fee schedule, plus any project administrative fees and professional costs, and the distinction matters: the capital is the investment and must remain at risk, while fees are expenditure and do not count towards the threshold.
The question to ask before starting the extraction is what the total commitment looks like on current figures, and what the household would do if the applicable amount changed midway. Recording that answer prevents the shortfall being discovered at the point of investment.
