Important Information for All Vietnam Visa Applicants Beginning October 3, 2022

Beginning October 3, 2022, all Vietnamese immigrant and nonimmigrant visa applicants whose passports were issued starting July 1, 2022 must include a Vietnam government endorsement page that states the place of birth. Visa applicants who do not have an endorsement page will not be permitted to attend their visa interviews and will be required to reschedule at a later date.

Until the new policy takes effect on October 3, the U.S. Embassy in Hanoi and the U.S. Consulate in Ho Chi Minh City is advising all Vietnamese visa applicants to ensure that their place of birth (city/ province/ country) is listed on their DS-160 Nonimmigrant Visa Applications and DS-260 Immigrant Visa Applications.

Green Card Through Investment: Is the EB-5 Visa Worth It for Vietnamese Investors?

For many Vietnamese families, the EB-5 “Immigrant Investor” visa is one of the most direct ways to pursue U.S. lawful permanent residence (“Green Card”). However, EB-5 is not simply a matter of investing money and receiving a Green Card. Instead, it is a highly regulated U.S. immigration visa category with detailed requirements. Vietnamese investors should understand the investment amount, Source of Funds (“SOF”) documentation, the path of funds in making the investment, Project risks, processing timeline, and consular process before deciding whether EB-5 is worth it. In 2026, this decision is especially important as the required EB-5 investment is substantial. Moreover, for Vietnamese citizens, local issues such as real estate proceeds, business income, currency transfers, and interview processing can all affect the case. Enterline and Partners helps Vietnamese investors evaluate EB-5 eligibility, prepare source of funds documentation, and plan the next steps toward a Green Card through investment. Managing Partner

What is the World Cup Visa and FIFA Pass and Do These Allow Fans to Go to the U.S. to Attend Matches?

What Is the “World Cup Visa”? Many fans planning to attend the FIFA World Cup wonder whether a special “World Cup visa” is required. The answer is no. The United States, Canada, and Mexico do not issue a separate visa for World Cup attendees. Every fan hoping to attend a match in any of these countries must comply with the standard immigration and entry requirements of the country. No Special World Cup Visa Exists The FIFA World Cup is a major sporting event, but attending a match does not create a special visa category. Everyone who travels to watch World Cup matches must follow the regular entry rules of that country. For example: Travelers should check the entry rules before the tournament, as visa processing times can vary significantly. A Match Ticket Is Not a Visa Many people believe that buying a World Cup ticket allows them to enter the

USCIS Proposes EB-5 Regulations to the EB-5 Reform and Integrity Act of 2022

The United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (“USCIS”) has published aNotice of Proposed Rulemaking that would formally implement regulations to the EB-5 Reform and Integrity Act of 2022 (“RIA”) governing the EB-5 Immigrant Investor Program and the EB-5 Regional Center Program. The proposed regulations represent the most significant regulatory update to the EB-5 program since Congress enacted the EB-5 Reform and Integrity Act in 2022. Although USCIS has already been administering the program under the RIA for several years, many of its existing regulations predate the legislation. The proposed regulations are intended to bring the current regulations into conformity with current law and provide greater clarity for EB-5 investors, Regional Centers, developers, and immigration practitioners. Interested parties may submit comments on the proposed regulations through August 31, 2026. What Is the EB-5 Reform and Integrity Act of 2022? The RIA fundamentally reshaped the EB-5 Immigrant Investor Program. In addition to
