IIUSA’s Public Policy Committee met this week and formed a Legal Subcommittee to lead the drafting of IIUSA input on the subject and manage member input.  Accordingly, anyone with questions or comments on procedure for promulgating new regulations and/or recommended policy considerations for the potential new regulatory regime should email Ashley Sanislo Casey (ashley.casey@iiusa.org) as soon as possible.

U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) invites you to participate in a stakeholder teleconference on Wednesday, April 23, 2014, from 2:30 p.m. to 4 p.m. (Eastern) to discuss future regulatory changes for the EB-5 Immigrant Investor Program.

USCIS is beginning work on revised EB-5 regulations. Regulatory revision has been identified as an important step for the future of the EB-5 Program and is an agency priority. We invite EB-5 stakeholders to provide feedback on EB-5 regulations as we work toward making regulatory improvements to strengthen the efficiency, predictability, and integrity of the EB-5 program.

During this engagement, USCIS officials will listen to your feedback and input on changes to the EB-5 regulations. Feedback and input can be related to:

  • Methods to combat fraud and abuse
  •  How to improve upon current regulations
  •  Substantive eligibility requirements
  •  Procedural filing requirements

For those unable to attend, we will hold a follow-up discussion in the USCIS Idea Community. We encourage you to become a part of the discussion starting on April 24, 2014.
