How much influence does the "queuing" of American investment immigrants have on China immigrants?

The impact of this full amount will only last until June this year 10. With the beginning of the new fiscal year, new EB-5 places will be released one after another, alleviating the current unlimited predicament. Wei Ting, deputy general manager of Zhejiang Overseas Chinese, said that even if it is only a short one-month "impact period".

In July this year, Oppenheimer, who is in charge of issuing immigrant visas in the State Council, revealed that the EB-5 quota in China will be reduced in fiscal year 20 15. It will be reduced from 10600 in fiscal year 20 14 to 9900. He predicted that EB-5 places will be exhausted on 20 15, and will appear in June-August at the earliest.

It is reported that the backlog of EB-5 applications submitted by the US Immigration Service but not yet processed has exceeded 1 10,000.

"Older" applicants are most worried.

Overage is a complicated situation. American investment immigrants require China investors to choose American investment immigrants and EB-5 investment projects before their children reach the age of 265,438+0, and submit an I-526 application as soon as possible. All family members who apply for I-526 must enter the next processing procedure as soon as possible.

-Robert C. Divine, Vice President of EB-5 Investment and Immigration Industry Association of the United States.

In China, more than 60% investors emigrate for the education of their children. Such families generally choose one parent as the main investor, and the children as family members for family migration. For the "older" applicants who are about to turn 2 1, scheduling is a great bad news, which may make their immigration road die.

Generally speaking, when the visa is not scheduled, the child's age will stop counting from the time the case is submitted to I-526 until the visa is obtained, that is, the child is 20 years old when I-526 is submitted, and the child's age will not be counted during the whole immigration process. Even if the child's age exceeds 2 1 in the process of handling, it is not affected by age restrictions.

However, if it is an appointment visa, the child's age will only be frozen during the I-526 trial, and the child's age will be recalculated after I-526 is passed.

To put it simply, if the child is 6 months old and 2 1 year old when I-526 is submitted, he must obtain a visa within 6 months after I-526 is passed. If it is more than 6 months, I will be too old to continue to apply at the interview stage of Guangzhou Consulate, and I will lose the qualification to apply with him.

"Work and rest time has a great influence on over-age children. In the past few days, we have been helping many families to make new immigration plans. " Wei Ting said, "For example, the child was born in September of 1994, and their I-526 application was submitted two months ago. After about one year of processing, it will be approved around August next year. However, because the EB-5 visa quota is gone, we have to wait for the schedule. Two months later, on June 5438+00 next year, the date arrived, but the actual age of the child has exceeded 2 1 year. You can ask a lawyer for help at this time. You can subtract the processing time of I-526 from the actual age of the child, and get that the legal age of the child is below 2 1 year, so you can safely immigrate. This is the use of the child identity protection law. "

However, if other data remain unchanged, the plan will become 15 months. Then, at the scheduled time, children are not only over 265,438+0 years old, but also over 265,438+0 years old, so it is impossible to get a green card with their families.

"In recent years, I have come into contact with many prospective applicants, all of whom have just finished the college entrance examination. Their parents didn't find out that their children didn't adapt to domestic education until the college entrance examination and wanted to send their children abroad to study. These families are actually' dangerous'. If you apply with your parents after 18 years old, you should be prepared for overage. " Wei Ting said that the worst result was that time and money went down, only to find that the most important applicant (child) still could not apply for a green card. "It is best to apply as soon as possible. If it is really late, it is better to apply for EB-5 based on children, which is safer. "

The project side has mixed feelings.

Scheduling will delay China investors' application for cancellation of conditions two years later, and affect the approval of I-829. There are two main concerns: first, whether the investment project still exists; The second is whether job creation is satisfied.

-Robert C. Divine, Vice President of EB-5 Investment and Immigration Industry Association of the United States.

If anyone is happy because of the emergence of EB-5 scheduling, it must be the project side. According to the provisions of the immigration law, when applying for I-829, it must be proved that 10 jobs have been created or can be created within a reasonable time. Many projects failed to meet this requirement, which led to the rejection of I-829.

Once the date is set, it means that the time for the applicant to get the temporary green card will be delayed, and accordingly, the project party will have more time to create 10 employment opportunities.

However, for other project parties, the schedule is actually worrying.

Some new regional centers will stipulate in their investment contracts that investors can only get an investment of $500,000 after obtaining an immigrant visa from the US Consulate. This means that the emergence of EB-5 scheduling will lead to the inability to export funds, which may lead to the break of the project capital chain and the failure of the whole project.

I mention this to remind applicants who are going to invest in the United States that the project is very important for American investment immigrants. Pay attention to this when comparing projects. Generally speaking, after you get an immigrant visa, let the supervision account lend money, and the account funds will be relatively safe. The best choice is to find a project party with particularly strong financing ability, which can withstand long delays.

The quota is used up.

Influence of different stages on investors

■ If you are an investor who is choosing a project and has not submitted an I-526 application:

Choose high-quality projects recognized by the Immigration Bureau as soon as possible, and submit your I-526 application, so as to ensure the top ranking in the 20 15 fiscal year, regardless of the quota. Because once the timetable appears, it will only be pushed back, and children who are about to reach the age of 2 1 year will face the danger of being over-aged.

■ If you are an investor who has submitted an I-526 application and is waiting for approval:

Wait and see, once I-526 is approved, there is a great chance to use the 20 15 quota.

■ If you are an approved investor, but have not completed the NVC process and started to arrange an interview:

In a very favorable position, it will be the first guests to use the 20 15 visa quota.

■ If you are an investor who has been approved and received an interview notice from Guangzhou Consulate:

You have already enjoyed the visa quota for fiscal year 20 14, and it will not be affected. Just go to the interview on time.
