Recently, the U.S. Department of State's Visa Office officially released the visa bulletin for September 2019, the final month of the 2019 fiscal year, for the EB-5 immigrant investor program. The latest results show: For Table A, the final action date for EB-5 applicants is October 22, 2014, an advancement of 1 week compared to August; for Table B, it has advanced by 1 week compared to August to November 22, 2014.
Table A: Final Action Date (FAD)
(Note: For consular processing at the U.S. Consulate General in Guangzhou & filing Form I-485 for adjustment of status with USCIS)
Table B: Date for Filing Application (DFF)
(Note: For those already holding legal residence in the U.S. to file Form I-485 for adjustment of status with USCIS)
【WorldWay Interpretation】
I. The final action date for EB-5 immigrant investor visas is October 22, 2014, an advancement of 1 week. Investors who have received I-526 approval and have a priority date earlier than October 22, 2014, may proceed to the final consular interview stage or file an I-485 adjustment of status application in the United States to obtain a Green Card.
II. Table B advanced by two weeks in August to November 15, 2014, and continues to advance by one week in September to November 22, 2014.
III. USCIS utilized Table B for the first 4 months of the 2019 fiscal year (October 2018 to January 2019) for all employment-based visa categories, but suspended the use of Table B starting from the fifth month of the 2019 fiscal year, February 2019. Whether Table B will be utilized in the future remains to be seen.
As is well known, the EB-5 industry has faced "retrogression" since May 1, 2015. Over the past few years, the issue of retrogression has been a focal point of discussion among investors born in mainland China and the vast majority of EB-5 industry practitioners. The U.S. Congress and USCIS have consistently worked on both legislative and administrative levels to reform the EB-5 Regional Center Program and have continuously proposed feasible solutions to address retrogression. We believe that with the efforts of all parties, the U.S. EB-5 retrogression issue will eventually be fundamentally resolved.
For investors with a rigid demand for U.S. immigration, now is an excellent time to immigrate to the U.S. at the low cost of $500,000. After November 21, the minimum EB-5 investment amount will increase significantly; the minimum investment for Targeted Employment Areas (TEA) will rise from $500,000 to $900,000, and the investment for non-TEA areas will increase from $1 million to $1.8 million.
Meanwhile, U.S. industry commentators suggest that after the U.S. investment immigration price hike, the number of foreign investors will drop sharply, the phenomenon of legal "queue jumping" will be largely eliminated, and the speed of retrogression for Chinese investors will be significantly accelerated. By then, the retrogression issue that has troubled investors born in mainland China will also be alleviated.
