My understanding is that EB5 program are currently in limbo. First step is to find a good lawyer. Good luck.

As a result, USCIS is reevaluating the decision to hold, or not act on, any pending petition or application of these form types that is dependent on the expired statutory authority and was filed before the end of the statutory authorization. We will provide additional guidance as soon as practical."

EB-5 visa has two investment options EB5 - Direct and EB5 - regional center. The regional center program is in limbo. The EB5 direct is permanently authorized and still running. The key difference between the two is that in regional center you are more of an investor, vs Direct where you should have a management or policy formulation role in the enterprise.
Got it. I stand corrected. Thank you for the clarification. Best of luck. Liquor store seems to be recession proof.
