U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) announced on
October 26, 2023, that it is "updating the USCIS Policy Manual
with new guidance on the EB-5 Regional Center Program and new
content on regional center designation and obligations, project
applications, and direct and third-party promoters."
USCIS said the update incorporates changes from the EB-5 Reform
and Integrity Act of 2022 into the Policy Manual, building on an
initial update that incorporated such changes on October 6,
2022.
Among other things, USCIS reorganized Part G, Volume 6, updated
the chapter on adjudication of investor petitions for
classification, and added new content on regional center
designations and obligations, project applications, and direct and
third-party promoters, including registration. USCIS said further
updates to EB-5 guidance in the Policy Manual are forthcoming and
will include revisions to Chapter 5, Removal of Conditions.
