  【Interpretation by WorldWay Immigration】

 

  I. The cutoff date for the EB-5 investment immigration visa is September 22, 2014, moving forward by one week. Investors who have received I-526 approval and have a priority date earlier than September 22, 2014, can proceed to the final consular interview or submit the I-485 adjustment of status application in the U.S. and obtain a green card.

 

  II. For Chart B, it remains at October 1, 2014, nine months later, moving forward by one week to October 8, 2014, in April, and continuing to move forward by one week to October 15, 2014, in May.

 

  III. USCIS utilized Chart B for the first four months of the new fiscal year 2019 (from October 2018 to January 2019) for all employment-based immigration visa categories, and it has been suspended since the fifth month of the new fiscal year 2019, starting in February 2019. Whether Chart B will be utilized in the future remains to be observed.

 

  Currently, the existing U.S. EB-5 Regional Center Program has been extended until September 30, 2019, which may be the last deadline for maintaining the low investment amount of $500,000 for U.S. EB-5 investment immigration. For those intending to immigrate to the U.S., it is essential to make a prompt decision, submit applications quickly, and plan ahead to obtain U.S. permanent residency to adapt to any changes.

 

  Investors can choose high-quality projects that have been approved by USCIS, are expected to shorten the waiting period, have completed all employment, and have first-priority guarantee repayments, which will greatly protect investors' interests and assist them in successfully immigrating to the U.S. The two highly popular EB-5 projects from WorldWay Immigration: the Manhattan 9 Luxury Boutique Hotel and Dallas 1 are both exceptional projects currently under orderly construction as planned.

 

  High-quality project slots are in high demand. For those in need of a green card and with funds ready, this is a great opportunity to immigrate to the U.S. at the low price of $500,000. Please do not miss out and submit your application as soon as possible. Good projects do not wait for anyone; green card applications should be made early.
