David Enterline Esq., and Ms. Tham Tran speak at GBI June Meeting

On June 24, 2019, Enterline and Partners Managing Partner David Enterline, and Mr. Tham Tran, Esq., were invited to join the June Meeting of GBI – Saigon Businessmen Club.

GBI club is an organization where business owners in Ho Chi Minh City gather to share their knowledge, business opportunities, and expand their social and business network. This club has approximately 30 members in multiple industries and services.

In the social event in June, David Enterline Esq., and Mr. Tham Tran were invited to join the meeting at The Unique restaurant in District 10, Ho Chi Minh City. Along with Ms. Tham, David shared with the attendees some information about what types of visas entrepreneurs would use for doing business or immigrating to the United States. In particular, Vietnamese investors and businesspersons might start with a B-1/B-2 visa for starting a business (the B-1 is for business) or an L-1 or E-2 for staying in the U.S. to manage a business. If an investor or business person wants to do business in the U.S. and also obtain permanent residence, then several other visas may be appropriate, such as the EB-1C for multinational managers and executives and of course the EB-5 immigrant investor visa. Finally, for some individuals with extraordinary abilities and talents in business, arts, science, education, or athletics, they may qualify for the EB-1 visa, or if they have exceptional ability in the science, arts or business, they may qualify for the EB-2 visa.

What is a Priority Date in U.S. Immigration? A Complete Guide to the Priority Date in U.S. Immigration

The priority date in U.S. immigration is a critical concept for anyone waiting for lawful permanent residency status (“Green Card”).  Because Congress sets strict annual limits on the number of immigrant visas issued in most categories, demand often outstrips supply, creating significant backlogs. Your priority date effectively acts as your “place in line” in this complex government queue. This priority date is established when the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (“USCIS”) receives your initial petition, either the Form I-130 (for family-sponsored cases) or the Form I-140 or Labor Certification (for employment-based cases) or Form I-526/I-526E (for investor cases). Think of it as the timestamp on your ticket; until your number is called based on this date, you cannot move forward to the final stage of the immigration process. Understanding how the USCIS priority date works is vital for managing your expectations, planning your life during the wait, and knowing

USCIS To Implements the 2025 Naturalization Civics Test

The U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (“USCIS”) has announced an update to its Policy Manual that re-introduces a modified version of the 2020 Civics Test—now called the 2025 Naturalization Civics Test. The update, once adopted, will apply to applications for naturalization (Form N-400 Application for Naturalization) filed on or after October 20, 2025, and aims to reinforce the importance of civic knowledge, assimilation into the U.S. society, an understanding of the Constitution, laws, and founding principles of the United States. Why This Change Matters Naturalization is the process by which lawful permanent residents become U.S. citizens—gaining full rights and responsibilities in American society. Under Section 312 of the Immigration and Nationality Act (“INA”), most applicants must demonstrate both proficiency in the English language and knowledge of U.S. civics and government. The USCIS notes that strengthening these requirements is part of its broader goal to ensure that new citizens are well-prepared

EB-5 Visa Processing Time: How Long Do I Have to Wait for Approval?

If you are applying for the EB-5 Immigrant Investor Visa, one of the first questions you’ll ask is: “What is the EB-5 visa processing time?” The truth is, EB-5 processing times vary greatly depending on many factors, such as your nationality, the project you invest in, how the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (“USCIS”) handles the Form I-526/I-526E Petition (“Petition”), and timing regarding the approval of Petitions, and timing regarding visa availability. On average, it can take 12 to 30 months for many Petitions to be approved, but the official USCIS posted times may show 2–4 years or longer. EB-5 Visa Process Overview There is a 3-step process to obtaining lawful permanent residence in the U.S. via the EB-5 immigrant investor visa category. First, an investor files a Form I-526 or Form I-526E Petition with the United States Citizenship and Immigration Service.  Once the Petition is approved, an investor
