The EB-5 Regional Center Program is set to expire on June 30, 2021 unless reauthorized by Congress. In the past, the program was typically reauthorized in one-year increments. However, earlier this year, after the last program expiration, Congress took the unusual step of making a six-month extension. What this means is that the program would expire midyear on June 30, 2021 unless Congress reauthorizes it.<\/p>\n
Currently, several EB-5 Regional Center Program bills are pending in Congress. Most notable is the EB-5 Reform and Integrity Act, which would reauthorize the EB-5 Regional Center Program through September 2026 and would also increase the compliance responsibilities of Regional Centers.<\/p>\n
In the past, during temporary expirations, the United States and Immigration Services (USCIS) has accepted Form I-526 Immigrant Petitions by Alien Investors and Form I-485 Applications for Adjustment of Status to Permanent Residence, but put the adjudication of new and pending cases on hold pending action in Congress.<\/p>\n
