Common Questions

What is a Writ of Mandamus in the EB-5 context?

A Writ of Mandamus is a federal lawsuit that asks a court to compel USCIS to adjudicate a pending petition that has been unreasonably delayed. It is a legal tool investors use when administrative inquiries and congressional requests have not resolved processing delays.

When should I consider filing a mandamus lawsuit?

Mandamus may be appropriate when your petition has been pending significantly beyond normal processing times and you have exhausted other options such as service requests and congressional inquiries. An experienced attorney can evaluate whether your specific delay is actionable.

What is the EB-5 Immigrant Investor Program?

The EB-5 program allows foreign nationals to obtain a U.S. green card by making a qualifying investment in a new commercial enterprise that creates at least 10 full-time jobs for U.S. workers. The minimum investment amount depends on whether the project is in a Targeted Employment Area (TEA).

How do I choose an EB-5 immigration attorney?

Look for an attorney with specific EB-5 experience, a track record with USCIS petitions, and familiarity with your investment type (direct or regional center). Verify their bar standing, ask about their approval rates, and ensure they can explain the process clearly.

What is the difference between direct and regional center EB-5?

Direct EB-5 requires the investor to directly manage or be involved in a new commercial enterprise. Regional center EB-5 allows passive investment through an approved regional center, which can count indirect and induced jobs toward the 10-job requirement.
