On April 10, 2017, U.S. local time, the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) released the latest version of the I-526 application form on its official website, which requires investment immigration applicants to provide more and more information, and the review process has become increasingly stringent.
The new I-526 application form released by USCIS requires more detailed information, such as the applicant's recent addresses, workplaces, income, assets, etc., and applicants must use this version starting from September 6.
Below is the new version of the I-526 application form:
Industry analysis suggests that the release and update of the new I-526 application form is normal, but the significant increase in investment amounts will impact investment immigration. Since the Trump administration took office, there has been an increasingly strict trend in U.S. investment immigration. The update of this new I-526 application form may also be a sign and signal that U.S. investment immigration will gradually become stricter and the thresholds will soon be raised.
Currently, under the Trump administration, obtaining a U.S. green card visa has become more difficult, and the channels have become narrower. Nowadays, only the EB-5 visa immigration, which aims to create jobs in the U.S., employ Americans, and stimulate the U.S. economy, aligns with Trump's administration policy, making it the only type of immigration visa that has not been criticized by Trump. Therefore, those who intend to immigrate to the U.S. through EB-5 investment are advised to complete their investments before the EB-5 reform on April 28.
Recently, Trump has issued numerous new immigration measures, resulting in strong impacts on various green card visas for immigration to the U.S. The expiration of the EB-5 reform on April 28 is approaching; what direction will this year's U.S. investment immigration EB-5 reform take?
This weekend, the WorldWay Immigration Group will hold EB-5 policy analysis meetings in companies in Beijing, Shenzhen, and other locations. At that time, authoritative experts will analyze the U.S. immigration pathways under Trump's new policies and the direction of the 2017 U.S. investment immigration EB-5 policy.
