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 Form I-693, Report of Medical Examination and Vaccination Record?

If you are applying for lawful permanent residency (“Green Card”) from within the United States, you have to submit Form I-693, which is a medical exam and vaccination record completed by a specific doctor. Submitting this form shows that you are eligible for a Green Card based on health reasons. Who Can Complete Form I-693? Only a doctor listed on the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (“USCIS”) website at www.uscis.gov/tools/find-a-civil-surgeon can perform the exam. How Much Does it Cost to Have the Form I-693 Completed? Rates vary by physician. We encourage you to do your research and compare charges for civil surgeons in your area. When scheduling the appointment, tell the office that it is for an immigration medical examination. What Should I Bring to My Medical Examination Appointment? What Happens at the Appointment?

Vietnamese Passport Name Order: Common Issues with U.S. Immigration Documents

Many Vietnamese citizens face challenges when their names are listed incorrectly on U.S. immigration documents such as visas and Green Cards. This often happens because the naming style also known as the Vietnamese passport name order follows the format: Given/ Surname name → Middle name → Given name, which differs from the Western order of Given/ Surname name → First name → Middle name. Why Name Order Errors Happen? While the U.S. Consulate in Ho Chi Minh City and the U.S. Embassy in Hanoi usually handle names correctly, errors can occur when applications are processed by other Embassies or Consulates, or by United States Citizenship and Immigration Services inside the United States. These errors may cause inconsistencies between your passport, visa, and Green Card, which can lead to complications with government records, employment, or travel documents. What You Should Do After Receiving Your Visa or Green Card? If Your Green

What Is Capital In The RIA?

In the EB-5 Reform and Integrity Act of 2022 (“RIA”), the definition of “Capital” as an investment for EB-5 has been updated.  Capital includes cash, as well as any real, personal, or mixed tangible assets that are owned and controlled by the investor and which are invested in, or contributed into, the business. Capital can also be assets held in trust for the investor, provided the investor has unrestricted access to them. This guarantees that the funds are accessible for investment purposes and job creation. Capital must be evaluated using Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) or other SEC-adopted standard accounting procedures at the time of investment, at fair market value in U.S. dollars. This guarantees uniformity and openness in the investment’s appraisal. The definition of capital excludes several types of assets: However, Capital invested in a business with a buyback option may still qualify if the option can only be
