    The 2024 United States presidential election is scheduled to take place on Tuesday, November 5, 2024, Eastern Time. This election will be the 60th presidential election in the United States, and the winner will take office in January 2025 for a four-year term. Additionally, all 435 seats in the House of Representatives and 33 seats in the Senate will also be up for election, resulting in the formation of the 119th United States Congress.


    Daily Reports During Ballot Review Period (Preliminary):


    ◆ Starting from November 6 (Wednesday), the election office will publish a report around 4 PM each day, indicating how many ballots are still pending counting.


    ◆ Starting from November 7 (Thursday), the election office will publish an updated preliminary election results report around 4 PM each day.


    ◆ If the election office does not conduct counting on certain days and will not issue updated preliminary election results, they will notify the public in advance about the arrangements.


    Official Results Announcement


    Typically, candidates will declare victory on election night; however, in 2020, counting all ballots took several days. Therefore, the election office will not announce the final official election results later than December 5, 2024. Worldway Group will continue to monitor the latest developments and share them with everyone promptly.


    As the voting day on November 5 approaches, the situation of the U.S. election appears increasingly complex and uncertain. The competition between the Democratic and Republican parties has entered a heated stage, with poll results fluctuating like a roller coaster. Donald Trump and Kamala Harris have starkly different views on key issues. So, who will ultimately prevail? For those considering immigration, the most pressing question is: "How will the new president lead the future direction of U.S. immigration policy?"


    The immigration policies of the two candidates are opposing. The Democratic Party has long supported legal immigration, and Harris, as a member of the Democratic Party, has actively advocated for immigrant rights, promoting a more open and inclusive immigration policy. She has repeatedly expressed dissatisfaction with the Trump administration's hardline immigration policies, including travel bans, border wall construction, and harsh measures against illegal immigrants. If Harris is successfully elected, U.S. immigration policy may undergo significant changes.


    Trump has consistently adhered to the "America First" principle, and his hardline stance on immigration policy is deeply ingrained. His policies have tightened scrutiny on both legal and illegal immigration, particularly in family reunification and skilled worker visas, gradually raising the application thresholds. Moreover, Trump’s attitude towards illegal immigrants is particularly severe, clearly advocating for the deportation of all undocumented entrants. If Trump is re-elected, it is foreseeable that he will further tighten immigration policies.


    The Democratic candidate Harris and the Republican candidate Trump are evenly matched. This time, regardless of who is elected president, a new chapter in American history will be created. If the Democratic candidate is elected, the country may move towards a more inclusive immigration policy. However, if the Republican candidate is elected, it is expected that immigration policies will tighten.


    Despite the significant differences in immigration policies between the two parties, for those considering immigration, there is no need to be overly anxious regardless of who is elected. Whether the relatively moderate immigration policy continues or Trump’s hardline approach prevails, the United States is ultimately a mature immigration country and will not undergo significant changes due to a single political party.


    The United States will continue to welcome talented individuals and high-net-worth immigrants, depending on whether applicants meet the requirements for U.S. immigration. Furthermore, regardless of who wins the election, the EB-5 investment immigration program remains an effective pathway to obtaining U.S. residency. Additionally, the EB-5 investment immigration projects are protected by the "grandfather clause," meaning that regardless of which side wins, they will not be significantly affected in the short term.


    We advise those considering immigration to plan ahead and take action quickly, decisively "get on board"! Choosing high-quality projects and applying early to secure priority dates is particularly important during this valuable window period with no backlog. Currently, the number of EB-5 applications is continuously increasing, and it is possible that with the surge in applications for rural projects, there may be a backlog in the future. Submitting applications early provides an opportunity to obtain a green card sooner.


    Currently, two highly sought-after EB-5 projects, exclusively represented by Worldway in the Greater China region, are the "Marriott Hotel at Bryce Canyon National Park," ranked among the top ten national parks in the U.S., and the "Grand Resort in Hawaii," developed in collaboration with capital giants. Both projects have been meticulously selected and rigorously vetted by Worldway Group, making them excellent choices for your rapid immigration to the United States.


    These two premium EB-5 projects comply with the new law's rural TEA project requirements, not only enjoying reserved EB-5 visa quotas but also receiving priority processing from the immigration bureau. They offer numerous advantages, including no backlog, priority approval, and first-position collateral for EB-5 funds, starting from an investment of $800,000, allowing one application for the entire family to quickly obtain green cards. The quotas are limited, so act quickly to secure your spot.
