The gap, named · our reading of the rule

Court vacaturs and legislative enactments have altered EB-5 investment amounts. Quoting figures without dates leads to outdated numbers.

The Regulatory Framework

The EB-5 Reform and Integrity Act of 2022 set statutory investment levels at $800,000 for Targeted Employment Areas (TEAs) and $1,050,000 for non-TEAs.

How entrepreneurs prepare for this conversation

• Step 1: Check Current Statutory Benchmarks: Rely on post-2022 legislation rather than historic forum posts.
• Step 2: Maintain Legal Representation Independence: Use an attorney who does not sell investments.

Attorney Interrogation Sheet (What to Ask)

1. Does the targeted regional center project meet current TEA criteria under the 2022 Act?
2. What source-of-funds evidence is required for my petition?

What this is not This piece quotes the published rule and says plainly where we are reading it rather than quoting it. It is not legal, tax or immigration advice, it creates no attorney–client relationship, and neither you nor we can apply it to your facts. Rules also move — check the date above, then take the questions in this piece to your own licensed attorney and CPA, who are the only people who can advise you.

Ownership and work authorisation are treated differently in the rules, and that difference is what this library is about. Everything here is written for people keeping the job that holds their status.
