Ron will be co-presenting “Representing the Direct EB-5 Investor.”
Although a majority of EB-5 petitioners invest in regional center projects, a growing number are choosing the direct EB-5 route. These cases have unique issues unrelated to regional center EB-5s, ranging from acquiring the business to multiple location businesses to the investor’s involvement in the business—and everything in between. This panel will cover the significant issues in representing these cases including pooled direct EB-5 and source of funds of other investors, acquisition of a business and business plans, transitioning from E-2 to EB-5, proving “qualifying employees,” and I-829 issues including RFEs, denials and NTAs.
