1. Compare the tax systems of the United States and Malta.
A permanent resident or citizen of the United States must file a foreign assets tax in addition to reporting income within the United States, which is a global tax. Taxes in the United States include income tax, dividend tax, profits tax, real estate tax, estate tax, and gift tax!It is useless to use a U.S. green card to move money anywhere. Even if you live in the UK and use your US green card to do business in China, you will have to pay taxes to the US**.
Malta brings together the European Union, Schengen, Eurozone, and the Commonwealth, and there are 182 visa-exempt countries in the world, including superpowers such as the United States, Canada, and Australia. Malta is a paradise for residents of European countries, with almost no local taxes and no global taxes.

2. Compare the investment risk index of the two countries.
The EB-5 policy in the United States is based on boosting the nation's economy and increasing jobs. Therefore, it calls for the establishment of regional centers in areas with high unemployment. High unemployment is divided into two categories, one is remote and poor, and the other is bustling but underemployed.

The entourage of the U.S. immigration program only has spouses and children, and parents can only rely on themselves to apply for immigration if they want to accompany them, and they can enjoy the social and public benefits of the United States with a U.S. green card, which is actually relatively small, because most of the public benefits are for U.S. citizens.
In addition to spouses and children, Malta Immigration Program entourages can also take their parents and grandparents, four generations of immigrants, who can compete with Malta?A Maltese passport can fully enjoy the benefits of the EU Schengen. Not to mention the fact that you can travel freely in 27 EU countries, and you can also travel and live in 155 countries except for EU countries such as the United States and Canada.
