The latest data from USCIS is in, and suggests that the EB-5 Immigrant Investor Program is alive and growing healthier by the quarter.

U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) recently released filing and processing  statistics for the 4th quarter of the 2023 fiscal year, which included encouraging signs for the EB-5 Program. New filing numbers for I-526E Regional Center Investor petitions represent the highest quarterly filing total the program has had since Modernization Rules took effect in 2020, and are reflective of the strong filing activity in recent years.

In Q4 of FY 2023 (July 1-September 30), USCIS received a total of 888 I-526E Regional Center Investor petitions, This stands in comparison to 57 I-526 Standalone Investor filings, and is greater than the total of 829 regional center and standalone filings combined for the  entire 2022 fiscal year.
