The November 2020 Visa Bulletin Priority Date shows slight movement forward for Vietnamese EB-5 immigrant investors

The “Final Action Date” priority date for Vietnamese EB-5 investors moved forward slightly in the Department of State November 2020 visa bulletin from August 15, 2017 to September 1, 2017. The priority date indicates that any investors who filed their I-526 Petitions on or before September 1, 2017 now have visas available. If you are such an investor, you should be sure to contact the National Visa Center to begin your visa application process (if you have not already done so because of current Dates for Filing).

The Dates for Filing (Table B) remains current as has been the norm for Vietnam investors who will be classified under “All Chargeability Areas except those listed”.

Moreover, the USCIS has announced that it will allow those applicants who are in the U.S. and eligible to use the Dates for Filing table, which is current, to file adjustment of status applications in the United States. Contact us if you think you may be eligible to do so.

What do the Final Action Date and Dates for Filing Applications mean?

What is Birthright Citizenship and Can Trump End It

Beginning in 2018, President Donald Trump voiced support for ending birthright citizenship. Following the 2024 election results, Trump has made several additional public comments about ending birthright citizenship. Or at least redefine it. This poses the question: “what is birthright citizenship and can Trump end it?” What is Birthright Citizenship? Following the American Civil War, Congress ratified the 13th, 14th and 15th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution. Specifically, the 14th Amendment, which was ratified in 1868, was enacted in part to ensure that former slaves and their descendants, who were part of the Confederacy, would be recognized as U.S. citizens. The 14th Amendment, with regards to citizenship, states the following: “All persons born or naturalized in the United States and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and the state wherein they reside.” In plain language, this means that anybody who is born within the United

USCIS Now Requires Certain Adjustment Of Status Applicants To Submit Medical Examination With Their Form I-485 Application

Effectively immediately, the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (“USCIS”) will require certain applicants filing a Form I-485, Application to Register Permanent Residence or Adjust Status to submit a Form I-693, Report of Immigration Medical Examination and Vaccination Record with their Form I-485 Application. Applicants who are adjusting status within the United States are generally required to undergo a medical examination by a civil surgeon to show that they do not have any health conditions which would render them ineligible to immigrate. The USCIS has started this new policy change to reduce the number of Requests for Evidence that the agency issues before approving an applicant’s adjustment of status. For more information and to determine whether you are subject to this new policy, contact us at info@enterlinepartners.com.

Incoming Trump Administration Looks to Deport Migrants to Third-Party Countries

The incoming Trump administration is preparing a list of countries to which it may deport migrants if their home countries refuse to accept them, according to sources. These countries include Turks and Caicos, the Bahamas, Panama and Grenada. If implemented, it could result in thousands, if not hundreds of thousands of migrants being displaced in countries where they do not know anybody, do not speak the language nor have any connection to the culture. It also remains unclear that if deported to those third-party countries whether those newly arrived migrants would be legally allowed to work and remain in those countries. It is also unknown what kind of pressure – either economic or diplomatic – is being applied to force those countries to agree to accept certain migrants once President-elect Trump’s term begins on January 20, 2025. Migrants from Venezuela, Cuba, China, and other countries that have been reluctant to
