What Is The EB-5 Reform And Integrity Act of 2022?

The EB-5 Reform and Integrity Act of 2022 (“RIA”) made significant changes to the U.S. EB-5 Immigrant Investor Program. This program enables international investors and their immediate family members to apply for U.S. Permanent Residency and obtain “green cards” by making a significant investment in a U.S. company and creating jobs for U.S. workers.

The primary features of the RIA include:

The EB-5 Regional Center Program has been reauthorized and improved for better stability;
An increase in the program’s minimum investment requirements;
Changes to the criterion for Targeted Employment Areas;
Strengthened integrity procedures to improve the program’s transparency and security;
The creation of new Reserved Visa categories;
Investors in the program will benefit from enhanced protections;

This is the first article in a series in which we will explain every aspect of the RIA and how it may impact foreign nationals and international investors that are considering making an investment into the U.S. to obtain Lawful Permanent Residence for themselves and their qualify family members. Stay tuned for further articles coming soon.

Green Card Through Investment: Is the EB-5 Visa Worth It for Vietnamese Investors?

For many Vietnamese families, the EB-5 “Immigrant Investor” visa is one of the most direct ways to pursue U.S. lawful permanent residence (“Green Card”). However, EB-5 is not simply a matter of investing money and receiving a Green Card. Instead, it is a highly regulated U.S. immigration visa category with detailed requirements. Vietnamese investors should understand the investment amount, Source of Funds (“SOF”) documentation, the path of funds in making the investment, Project risks, processing timeline, and consular process before deciding whether EB-5 is worth it. In 2026, this decision is especially important as the required EB-5 investment is substantial. Moreover, for Vietnamese citizens, local issues such as real estate proceeds, business income, currency transfers, and interview processing can all affect the case. Enterline and Partners helps Vietnamese investors evaluate EB-5 eligibility, prepare source of funds documentation, and plan the next steps toward a Green Card through investment. Managing Partner

What is the World Cup Visa and FIFA Pass and Do These Allow Fans to Go to the U.S. to Attend Matches?

What Is the “World Cup Visa”? Many fans planning to attend the FIFA World Cup wonder whether a special “World Cup visa” is required. The answer is no. The United States, Canada, and Mexico do not issue a separate visa for World Cup attendees. Every fan hoping to attend a match in any of these countries must comply with the standard immigration and entry requirements of the country. No Special World Cup Visa Exists The FIFA World Cup is a major sporting event, but attending a match does not create a special visa category. Everyone who travels to watch World Cup matches must follow the regular entry rules of that country. For example: Travelers should check the entry rules before the tournament, as visa processing times can vary significantly. A Match Ticket Is Not a Visa Many people believe that buying a World Cup ticket allows them to enter the
