Ten Things to Learn from the New EB-5 Immigrant Visa Proposal
The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has published a proposed rule implementing and codifying many provisions of the EB-5 Reform and Integrity Act of 2022 (RIA). While many of the changes have already been in effect since the RIA was enacted, the proposal provides important regulatory guidance, introduces several new definitions, and proposes a significant increase in the investment threshold for certain projects. DHS will accept public comments for 60 days following publication in the Federal Register on July 2, 2026. Ten Things to Learn from the New EB-5 Immigrant Visa Proposal 1. The Rule Mostly Codifies Existing RIA Requirements The proposal largely formalizes statutory changes enacted under the EB-5 Reform and Integrity Act of 2022, including enhanced integrity measures, Regional Center oversight, investor protections, audits, and compliance requirements. Many of these provisions have already been implemented in practice since March 2022. 2. DHS Proposes a New $1.4 Million Investment Threshold for High Employment Areas One of the proposal’s most significant changes is the creation of a new investment category for High Employment Areas (HEAs). The minimum investment for projects located in a High Employment Area would increase to $1,400,000, compared with the current standard minimum investment of $1,050,000. This represents the first time DHS has formally defined High Employment Areas as a separate investment category. 3. DHS Defines “High Employment Area” The proposed regulation defines a High Employment Area as an area where the national average unemployment rate is at least 150% of the unemployment rate in the investment area. This new category is distinct from Targeted Employment Areas […]
WR Immigration Wins O-1 Visa Issuance Through Federal Court Action After Two-Year Consular Delay
WR Immigration is proud to share a recent litigation success that helped an O-1 visa holder overcome an extraordinary consular delay and finally obtain a visa to enter the United States. Our client, a highly accomplished professional approved for O-1 classification by U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS), found themselves trapped in immigration limbo despite having already secured petition approval. A Visa Approved but Never Issued After USCIS approved the client’s O-1 petition, the client attended a visa interview at the U.S. Consulate and submitted a passport for visa issuance. Under ordinary circumstances, this would have been one of the final steps before traveling to the United States. Instead, the case remained unresolved in administrative processing for approximately two years. Despite repeated follow-up inquiries to the Department of State, the client received no meaningful updates regarding the status of the visa. After exhausting all reasonable efforts to obtain a response from the government, the client turned to WR Immigration for assistance. Taking the Fight to Federal Court WR Immigration evaluated the matter and determined that federal litigation was the appropriate strategy. Our attorneys filed a mandamus action in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia, seeking to compel […]
