URGENT IMMIGRATION UPDATE: EXPIRATION OF EB-5 IMMIGRANT INVESTOR VISAS?

[see, "The Immigration Paradox: 15 Tips for Winning Immigration Cases," by Attorney Charles Jerome Ware, former U.S. Immigration Judge, iUniverse Publishers (2009)]

The EB-5 Immigrant Investor Visa Program, popularly known as "EB-5", is scheduled to "sunset" or expire on September 30th, 2012. The U.S Congress must vote to extend or prolong this program, if it is to survive, on or before September 30th, 2012. Otherwise, USCIS will lose authority to grant these visas to immigrants.

The "EB-5" program was created by Congress in 1990 to stimulate the U.S. economy through job creation and capital investment by foreign investors.

What do you think about this program?
