Announcement: USCIS Suspends Form I-129 and I-140 Premium Processing

U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (“USCIS”) has temporarily suspended its premium processing option for all Form I-129 and I-140 petitions until further notice due to the ongoing efforts to contain the spread of the Coronavirus.

Petitions using a Form I-907, Request for Premium Processing accepted prior to March 20, 2020 will continue to undergo a 15 calendar day review. Petitions that are currently being processed through premium processing and do not receive any agency action on their case within 15 days, such as an approval or a Request for Additional Evidence will receive a refund. USCIS will reject any Form I-907 and return the premium processing fee in the amount of US$1,440 that was mailed prior to March 20 and not yet accepted by USCIS.

Affiliated Job-Creating Entity From The RIA

The term “affiliated job-creating entity” is an important term of the EB-5 Reform and Integrity Act of 2022 (“RIA”). Under the EB-5 Immigrant Investor Program, foreign investors who participate make an investment in a new business that employs U.S. workers and can obtain lawful permanent residence in the United States. A company that is owned, run, or controlled by individuals associated with the new business endeavor or the EB-5 Regional Center is considered an “affiliated job-creating entity” in this context. According to this, a company falls under this category if it has ties to the people who control the business or Regional Center. These associated entities play a critical role in achieving the job creation objectives of the EB-5 program. These entities are not isolated in their activities; rather, they are closely linked to new business ventures and regional hubs that manage the flow of capital and ensure the development

A Complete Guide to the U.S. Investment Visa Process

For individuals looking to build a future in the United States, investment immigration is a viable option for some. Through a U.S. investment visa, foreign nationals can pursue lawful permanent residence (“Green Card”) by investing capital into U.S. businesses that creates jobs and contributes to the growth of the American economy. It is an attractive option for entrepreneurs, business owners, and individuals with the resources to contribute capital, while also opening the door for their spouse and unmarried children under 21 to join them in the United States. At Enterline and Partners, we understand that investment immigration is an important financial and personal decision. That is why our team works closely with clients to assess eligibility, prepare strong applications, and handle the often complex requirements of U.S. investor immigration law. With decades of experience behind us, we help investors and their families take confident steps toward permanent residency and new

Understanding Form I-864A: Contract Between Household Member and Sponsor

For many family-based immigrants applying for a Green Card, a key step in the process is the submission of Form I-864, Affidavit of Support (“I-864”). This is a legally binding contract in which the sponsoring family member (“Sponsor”) agrees to financially support the intending immigrant (“Beneficiary”). However, in some cases, the “Sponsor” alone may not have sufficient income or assets to meet the required financial support threshold. That is where Form I-864A, Contract Between Sponsor and Household Member (“Form I-864A”) comes into play. A Form I-864A, is used when a household member—such as a spouse, adult child, parent, or other relative residing at the same address—agrees to combine their income with the Sponsors to meet the minimum financial requirement. The household member must be willing to commit to support the Beneficiary alongside the Sponsor by signing the Form I-864A. It is important to understand the difference between the I-864 and
