In a recent Forbes article, EB5AN’s managing partner Sam Silverman breaks down the changes to the investment sustainment period rule brought by the EB-5 Reform and Integrity Act of 2022 (RIA).
The article explains how the RIA has changed the rules for how long EB-5 investments must be kept at risk. Now, funds need to stay invested for at least two years starting from the date the investment is made, as opposed to the start of the conditional permanent residency period. This change could help avoid the need for the redeployment of funds, which often poses extra financial risks to investors.
The article also highlights ongoing industry debates and legal challenges, such as the IIUSA lawsuit against USCIS. The outcome of this lawsuit could significantly affect EB-5 investors, especially those from countries with visa backlogs.
Understanding these changes and their potential impact can help investors make better decisions in the EB-5 process.
