Enterline Obtains Approval Of A High Unemployment Area I-526E Petition Filed For An EB-5 Investor In 13 months

Enterline and Partners Consulting Managing Partner David Enterline has obtained approval from the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (“USCIS”) Investor Program Office (“IPO”) of his EB-5 Investor’s Form I-526E Petition in 13 months. This investor’s I-526E Petition was based on an investment in a High Unemployment Area.

The EB-5 industry has recently been filled with news of I-526E Petition approvals based on investments in businesses located in Rural Areas, with processing times of between 4 and 12 months. Investments made in businesses in Rural Areas have an advantage of receiving priority processing and adjudication based on the EB-5 Reform and Integrity Act of 2022.

This approval of the I-526E Petition based on an investment in a High Unemployment Area in only 13 months could be the first such I-526E Petition approved outside of an investment project that had obtained approval for expediting processing based on national interest or humanitarian reasons.

New USCIS Policy Aims to Reduce Frivilous and Incomplete Filings

The United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (“USCIS”) has amended a previous policy during the Biden Administration which encouraged adjudicating officers to issue a Request for Evidence (“RFE”) before denying an immigration benefit even if the benefit being sought was filed incomplete, the requestor failed to demonstrate eligibility for the benefit being sought, or did not provide initial evidence clearly required at the time of submission. According to USCIS, the previous policy allowed for frivolous or substantially incomplete filings which slowed processing times and led to increased operational costs. The new policy, which was announced on August 5, 2026, restores an adjudicating officer’s full discretion in denying an immigration benefit without first issuing an RFE or a Notice of Intent to Deny (“NOID”). Updated policy highlights include the following: The revised policy is effective immediately and applies to immigration benefits that remain pending with USCIS or filed on or after

How to Petition Your Vietnamese Spouse for a U.S. Green Card?

Marriage to a U.S. Citizen does not automatically grant a Vietnamese spouse the right to live permanently in the United States. Before a Vietnamese spouse can immigrate to the United States, the U.S. Citizen or Lawful Permanent Resident (“Petitioner”) must first establish the marital relationship, complete the required documentation and have the process go through the U.S. immigration system. Multiple government agencies are involved including United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (“USCIS”), the United States Department of State (“DOS”), National Visa Center (“NVC”) and the U.S. Consulate General in Ho Chi Minh City. Each stage has separate forms, evidence requirements and deadlines. At Enterline and Partners, our U.S. immigration lawyers assist Petitioners with a spouse in Vietnam who would like to bring their Vietnamese spouses to the United States permanently. In this guide, we explain the sponsorship process, the difference between filing as a U.S. Citizen or a Lawful Permanent
