Main points to concentrate on when choosing a program
1
Pitfalls
Each program has its own pitfalls: obligation to live in the country, different tax rates for residents and non-residents, annual renewal of a residence permit, etc. We will discuss all these points so that you are aware of all the relevant issues regarding your option in order to enable you to make an informed decision to choose the program that best suits you.

Agent’s duty to ensure the consultation offered is of a high quality
Approval of the client’s application depends 99% on the information provided by the program’s agent and their competence. Individual consultation is based not only on our knowledge of the laws in force in different jurisdictions but also on our experience, which is much more valuable than simply a theoretical understanding of the process.

Possibility of application being rejected
Before recommending a specific program or signing an agreement, we first conduct a confidential Due Diligence check on each investor and each family member included in the application. The whole process takes no more than 24 hours. The Due Diligence check carried out by Immigrant Invest’s AML officers is similar to the one conducted by the program departments. We pick up any potentially sensitive issues and, together with our client, address them before submitting the application. In this way, we reduce the risk of the application being rejected to a negligible 1%.

What happens during our meeting with you
We analyze your case
Our specialists at Immigrant Invest will be at your disposal for at least an hour. We will focus on questions and goals that apply to your situation rather than on general information about the program. We will also discuss details and practical examples that we will not disclose until our meeting. If necessary, some of our colleagues will additionally join the meeting: for example, a fund or real estate specialist, or directors at our foreign offices.
We will reveal the real terms and timeline of the process
We will discuss the process and specify the timeframe within which we expect to obtain your second passport or residence permit based on our experience, and not just the letter of the law. We will warn you about the possible risks, delays and complications that may arise during the application.
We will inform you of the package of documents required
We will discuss the procedure and mechanism for confirming the legality of the source of your funds and give you practical advice. We will clarify which documents are needed to confirm the dependence of children and parents on the main applicant. We will show you how to obtain or certify the required documents.
We will calculate the cost of the program selected
We will calculate all the costs for you and your family, including the cost of services to be provided by Immigrant Invest. We will explain and discuss the terms of the agreement, and introduce the signatory to the agreement, Immigrant Invest’s CEO. We will be able to discuss and consolidate the entire package of documents without having to forward them to you.
We will select the best properties from our real estate base
If the program that you are interested in involves purchasing real estate, we will present the best properties from our real estate base. We will discuss the advantages and disadvantages of each option and narrow them down to the one most suitable for you.
Our discussion will be confidential
You will be free to ask our lawyers and other competent specialists any questions that you have, including those that you may not be comfortable discussing by phone or online: for example, the consent of your ex-spouse to include a child in the application or how to confirm the availability of the money required to participate in the program. All our meetings arer confidential and take place in separate meeting rooms.

Key Role of Due Diligence in Citizenship and Residence Programs
We carefully check our clients' backgrounds before submitting their applications to government departments. This detailed Due Diligence reduces the chance of their applications being rejected to only 1%. Our company is among the few in our industry that has its own Compliance Department.
99%
is your chance of obtaining the chosen document if the Due Diligence check is successfully passed
We follow all rules set by the European Union’s 6th Anti-Money Laundering Directive in our citizenship by investment programs. This ensures our operations are transparent and legal.
It’s important to note that if a client fails the government’s Due Diligence check, it can negatively affect their future applications. A rejection means the current application won’t succeed, and it also lowers the chances of any future applications being accepted, in any country.
