USCIS Makes Changes to the Eb-5 Immigrant Investor Program<\/div>\n
USCIS recently announced a new rule to the EB-5 immigrant investor program. The new rule makes several changes to the program, including:<\/div>\n
1. Providing the ability for certain immigrant investors to retain the priority date of previously approved EB-5 petitions when filing a new petition.<\/div>\n
2. Increasing the standard minimum investment to $1.8 million from $1 million and increasing the Targeted Employment Area (TEA) designated investments to $900,000 from $500,000. Future adjustments to the standard minimum investments will be made every five years based on inflation.<\/div>\n
3. TEA designations made by state and local governments will no longer be followed. Instead, USCIS will now directly review and determine whether to designate a certain area as a high-unemployment TEA. <\/div>\n
4. Derivative members of a principal EB-5 investor must now independently file to remove conditions on the permanent residence. <\/div>\n
5. Other technical changes and updates. <\/div>\n
These changes will go in effect on November 21, 2019. <\/div>\n
For more information about the EB-5 investor program, please contact our office for a free telephone consultation (15 minute) at 248-557-3645.<\/div>\n
