Information Seminar – What does the new EB-5 regulation mean and how will it affect me and my investors?

Wednesday, July 31st, 2019, 10:00 am – Enterline and Partners Consulting Office, 1A Cong Truong Me Linh, District 1, HCMC

As you know, the EB-5 Immigrant Investor Program Modernization regulation is scheduled to become effective on November 21, 2019. While some of the regulation is very clear, such as an increase to the minimum investment amount to US$900,000 Targeted Employment Area (“TEA”) and in a Non-TEA to $1.8 million, there are still many issues that are not so clear or obvious.

Join us for an informational seminar where we discuss such issues as:

  1. What happens to my Project after November 21st? Will it still qualify in a TEA? Can the project obtain funding and complete the project? What happens to existing investors if it fails to do so?
  2. What effect will this have on my existing investors who have already filed an I-526 Petition? What if my project changes its offering documents to allow for the increased investment amount?
  3. The rush to file petitions before November 21st – what are the risks? Recent USCIS policy in denying incomplete petitions.
  4. Will this regulation actually take effect in November? What might happen between now and then to stop or delay it?
  5. How to make sure your investor can qualify for the lower investment amount? What are the potential problems, e.g., timing of investment and using an escrow; is the project still in a TEA?
  6. How does the regulation relate to the September 30th sunset of the Immigrant Investor Program?
  7. What does it mean to “retain the Priority Date” of an earlier approved petition? Does my investor have to invest more money? At what amount?

Many of the answers to these questions are not so clear and there are many other questions which have not even been asked. Join us for a discussion of these questions and answers from our experienced EB-5 lawyer David Enterline.

What is the DS‑260, Its Role in Consular Processing, and Why Accuracy Matters?

If you are applying for a U.S. immigrant visa, completing the online Form DS-260 is a major step in the immigration process once the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services approves your petition. The DS-260 asks for detailed personal, family, and background information, which helps the United States Department of State (“DOS”) confirm your identity and eligibility. If the DS-260 is not properly completed, it can lead to the visa process being delayed. At Enterline and Partners, we help clients avoid such roadblocks by making sure their DS-260 is accurate and complete from the start. In this guide, we’ll cover what the DS-260 is, when to file it, and the key things to keep in mind during the overall process. When and How to Open Your DS-260 You will be able to begin your DS-260 once the National Visa Center (“NVC”) which is under DOS, confirms that your fees are

CR1 Visa Guide: Eligibility, Process, and Costs Explained

When couples begin exploring U.S. immigration options, one of the first questions that often comes up is “What is a CR1 visa?” The CR1 is a U.S. immigrant spouse visa that grants conditional permanent residency (“Green Card”) to foreign spouses married to U.S. citizens for less than two (2) years. While the concept is straightforward, the process involves multiple steps, forms, and interviews that can be confusing without guidance. At Enterline and Partners, we understand how stressful this process can feel. That is why we guide families with care, help prepare the right documents, and ease the challenges so the transition to the United States feels less overwhelming. Understanding the CR1 Visa and How It Is Classified The CR1 category is intended for couples whose marriage is still considered recent. Upon visa issuance, the foreign spouse will receive a two-year conditional residence and a Green Card, which requires filing to

Reauthorization and Stability From The RIA

The Reauthorization and Stability section of the EB-5 Reform and Integrity Act of 2022 (“RIA”) focuses on the continuation and enhancement of the EB-5 Regional Center Program, which had previously lapsed in 2021. The Regional Center Program is a part of the EB-5 Immigrant Investor  Program passed by the U.S. Congress in 1990.  It allows foreign investors to qualify for U.S. permanent residency by making qualifying investments in designated regional centers sponsored businesses and projects that create jobs for U.S. workers. The Regional Center Program had always been a “pilot” or temporary program.  The reauthorization extended the Regional Center Program for five years, providing stability and predictability for both investors and businesses participating in the program. In addition, the Act introduces new safeguards to enhance oversight and ensure compliance with federal regulations. This includes stricter requirements for Regional Centers, such as increased transparency through regular reporting, regular audits, and improved
