Would I still have to apply for H-1B Visa to secure a job?

The EB-5 Visa eliminates the need for securing sponsorship from an employer to get a job in the United States. Therefore, you will not be required to obtain the H1 B visa to secure a job in the U.S. If you are currently on an H1 B upon approval of your I526 Petition you may apply for an “Adjustment of status” with the USCIS and convert your immigrant status. Once your status is changed you no longer need a sponsor, which increases your chances of being shortlisted by employers.
