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.

Federal Judge Strikes Down Parole-in-Place Program

A U.S. Federal Court Judge has struck down Parole-in-Place following an earlier decision granting the State of Texas and fifteen (15) other states an administrative stay two months ago. Judge J. Campbell Barker of the Eastern District of Texas ruled that the program, which would fast-track permanent residency to certain undocumented immigrants to obtain lawful permanent residents who are spouses and stepchildren of U.S. citizens, “exceeded its statutory authority and is not in accordance with the law.”  Judge Barker further added that the program “focuses on the wrong thing, in identifying ‘significant public benefits’- the benefits of aliens’ new legal status – rather than their presence in the country.”  At the time of publishing this article, it is unclear whether the Biden Administration will appeal Judge Barker’s ruling.  For more information on this ruling, please contact us at info@enterlinepartners.com.

What is a K-3 Nonimmigrant visa?

A K-3 visa is a nonimmigrant visa that allows a foreign spouse of a U.S. citizen to enter the United States while their Form I-130 Petition for Alien Relative (“I-130 Petition”) is undergoing adjudication with the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (“USCIS”). The goal of a K-3 is to shorten the time that a foreign spouse is separated from his or her U.S. citizen spouse during the immigration process. The K-3 visa is specifically for foreign spouses of U.S. citizens who have already filed their I-130 Petition but have not received an approval. In order to file for a K-3 visa, the U.S. citizen spouse must first file an I-130 Petition with USCIS. Afterwards, the U.S. citizen spouse files a Form I-129F Petition for Alien fiancé(e). (“I-129F Petition”) with supplemental documentation.  If the I-129F Petition is approved before the I-130 Petition, the foreign spouse can consular process for a

Can I send my Absentee Ballot to a U.S. Embassy or Consulate for the Upcoming Presidential Election?

We have previously discussed who is eligible to vote in U.S. elections and how American citizens abroad (i.e. Vietnam, the Philippines, and Taiwan) can send their ballots by mail or use designated dropboxes to vote for their presidential and state and local candidates. U.S. citizens who are unable to physically drop off their ballots at certain locations in Vietnam, the Philippines and Taiwan may also mail their ballots directly to the U.S. Consulate in Ho Chi Minh City, the U.S. Embassy in Manila, or the American Institute in Taiwan in Taipei at the following addresses: U.S. Consulate Ho Chi Minh CityAmerican Citizen Services Unit4 Le Duan Blvd. District 1Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam U.S. Embassy ManilaAmerican Citizen Services Unit1201 Roxas Blvd.Manila, Philippines 1000 American Institute of TaiwanAmerican Citizen Services Unit100 Jinhu Road Neihu DistrictTaipei, Taiwan 114017 When sending sealed ballots to the addresses above, registered voters will need two envelopes.
