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 a Proxy Marriage?

Understanding what is a proxy marriage has become increasingly important for couples separated by international borders seeking options to formalize their relationship and pursue U.S. immigration benefits. A proxy marriage refers to a legally recognized marriage ceremony in which one or both parties are not physically present at the time the marriage is solemnized. While proxy marriages are not recognized in most U.S. states, certain jurisdictions do allow them under specific conditions. When properly structured and later consummated, a proxy marriage may be recognized for U.S. immigration purposes. Background of Proxy Marriages Historically, proxy marriages were most commonly used by military couples when one spouse was deployed overseas. In recent years, global travel restrictions and logistical challenges have caused many engaged couples to explore alternatives to marry despite being physically separated. From an immigration perspective, the key issue is not whether the marriage occurred by proxy, but whether the marriage

Trump Gold Card Program Legal: Does It Really Exist; Issues and Uncertainties

On December 10, 2025, United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (“USCIS”) released a Form I-140G, Immigrant Petition for the Gold Card Program (“Form I-140G”) and instructions for the new U.S. “Gold Card” immigration program. The program was (presumably) created by Executive Order of President Trump on September 19, 2025.  The program does not have congressional action or approval.  Presumably Form I-140G may be completed online after applicants register at trumpcard.gov and pay the required application fee.  The Gold Card program is being introduced as falling under the Employment Based First and Second Preference visa categories (EB-1 and EB-2). While the release of the Form I-140G provides some insight into how the program is intended to operate, the American Immigration Lawyers Association (“AILA”) has identified numerous ambiguities and structural concerns that raise questions about statutory consistency, procedural fairness, and practical implementation. One significant issue involves the donation requirement for derivative family
