The US$800,000 investment level applies to projects in a Targeted Employment Area (TEA). Under the EB-5 Reform and Integrity Act of 2022 (RIA), the last day to file a petition and qualify for the statute’s “grandfather clause” protection is September 30, 2026. According to the source, petitions filed after that date may be subject to a higher investment amount, revised adjudication standards, or disruptions that cannot be anticipated today. Choosing when to file is therefore central to keeping an investor’s position insulated from the changes that may follow.<\/p>\n
The EB-5 Reform and Integrity Act of 2022 and the grandfather clause: filing by September 30, 2026<\/strong><\/h2>\nUnder the EB-5 Reform and Integrity Act of 2022 (RIA), the EB-5 Regional Center Program was reauthorized through September 30, 2027, and investors may continue to participate through EB-5 investment<\/a> in a regional center project. Many investors therefore assume they have more than a year to prepare. In practice, the date that protects their position falls a full year earlier, before October 2026.<\/p>\nThe distinction lies in the grandfather clause. This provision allows EB-5 petitions already on file to continue to be adjudicated under the law in effect at the time of filing \u2014 notably if the Regional Center Program later lapses. It matters because it shields an investor’s position from shifts in U.S. immigration policy that come after the filing date.<\/p>\n
Applied to EB-5, and according to the source, the provision gives investors the following protections:<\/p>\n
\n- The US$800,000 investment level is preserved, for investments in a TEA project.<\/li>\n
- The petition continues to be adjudicated and is not suspended if the EB-5 program is interrupted.<\/li>\n
- The petition is not affected by the revised investment amount or the revised filing conditions that take effect from 2027 onward.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
In short, a petition properly filed on or before September 30, 2026 is treated under the investment amount and the program rules in effect on its filing date, which reduces an investor’s exposure to subsequent legal change. Grandfathering does not, however, guarantee that a petition will be approved, nor does it shorten any visa queue.<\/p>\n
Expected changes to the EB-5 program after 2026<\/strong><\/h2>\nUnder the EB-5 Reform and Integrity Act of 2022 (RIA), the program’s investment amount adjusts automatically under the statute in line with the Consumer Price Index (CPI) on a five-year cycle, and U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) applies the adjusted amount to petitions it receives. The first adjustment takes effect on January 1, 2027. Petitions filed after September 30, 2026 are therefore no longer assured of the current US$800,000 level and may instead be subject to a new amount reflecting cumulative inflation.<\/p>\n
IIUSA, the largest EB-5 trade association in the United States, projects that the investment amount for projects in a Targeted Employment Area (TEA) could rise toward US$1 million once the CPI adjustment is applied. That is a material difference in cost, and one that can bear directly on a family’s long-term financial planning.<\/p>\n
Beyond inflation, EB-5 policy can also move with the priorities of each administration. The history of the EB-5 program shows that the risk of interruption is real: in 2021, reauthorization of the EB-5 Regional Center Program lapsed and many regional center petitions were held up for extended periods. Reauthorization by the U.S. Congress has not always proceeded smoothly.<\/p>\n
Filing before September 30, 2026 therefore does more than preserve the current investment amount. It also helps ensure a petition continues to be adjudicated even if the law changes or regional center operations are disrupted.<\/p>\n
Factors to weigh before deciding to move early<\/strong><\/h2>\nFiling an EB-5 petition<\/a> in the current window is not simply a matter of “seizing an opportunity”; it is better understood as strategic risk management, particularly in light of the 3 timing factors the source sets out below.<\/p>\n1. Potential changes to policy and the investment amount<\/strong><\/h3>\nOne of the significant changes introduced by the EB-5 Reform and Integrity Act of 2022 (RIA) is that the EB-5 investment amount will be adjusted every five years in line with the Consumer Price Index (CPI), beginning January 1, 2027.<\/p>\n
There is precedent for a steep increase: the EB-5 investment amount rose from US$500,000 to US$900,000 in 2019. Citing current inflation, IIUSA projects that the present US$800,000 level could rise toward US$1 million after January 1, 2027.<\/p>\n
2. Visa quotas and the priority date<\/strong><\/h3>\nRoughly 10,000 EB-5 visas are available worldwide each year, and allocation is subject to a per-country limit. Once demand from a given country exceeds that limit, new petitions join a queue \u2014 the backlog \u2014 and are processed in order of priority date.<\/p>\n
\n- China and India have been in backlog for several years.<\/li>\n
- Some markets, including Vietnam, remain within their visa allocation for now, although filing volumes over the past 12 months have grown faster than projected.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Filing early establishes an earlier priority date in the queue, which can matter if demand from an investor’s country of chargeability later exceeds its per-country limit.<\/p>\n
3. Concurrent filing \u2014 an advantage for investors already in the United States<\/strong><\/h3>\nThe RIA of 2022 allows investors who are lawfully present in the United States on a nonimmigrant visa, such as F-1, H-1B, or E-2, to file concurrently:<\/p>\n
\n- Form I-526E, Immigrant Petition by Regional Center Investor, which leads to a conditional green card, and<\/li>\n
- Form I-485 (application to register permanent residence or adjust status).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
The benefits:<\/p>\n
\n- Concurrent filing allows the applicant to remain lawfully in the United States while the EB-5 petition (Form I-526E) is pending, even if the earlier nonimmigrant status, such as F-1, expires.<\/li>\n
- The applicant may also file Form I-765, Application for Employment Authorization, and Form I-131, Application for Travel Document, which can provide advance parole for travel in and out of the United States. Together these allow the applicant to continue working, traveling, and holding lawful status in the United States.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Please note: this option is available only to applicants who are lawfully present in the United States at the time of filing, and concurrent filing also requires that an EB-5 visa number be immediately available for the applicant’s country of chargeability \u2014 a point to confirm against the U.S. Department of State’s monthly Visa Bulletin before filing. On short-term visas such as B-1\/B-2, concurrent filing carries significant legal risk and warrants careful consideration.<\/a><\/p>\nIn practice, this route suits families whose children are studying in the United States, as well as investors already working and living there lawfully, because it lets them use the current window to begin regularizing their status sooner.<\/p>\n
4. The EB-5 petition: a demanding process that calls for early preparation<\/strong><\/h3>\nFiling a compliant EB-5 petition involves far more than submitting forms. It is a legal and financial exercise that typically takes 6\u201312 weeks to prepare. The main steps include:<\/p>\n
\n- Mapping out the strategy and assembling documentation that evidences a lawful source of funds.<\/li>\n
- Selecting an EB-5 project and conducting due diligence on it, assessing its job-creation feasibility and its risk profile.<\/li>\n
- Preparing, translating, and reviewing personal documents to meet USCIS requirements.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Because preparation takes time, an investor who waits until shortly before September 30, 2026 to begin may not be ready to file while the US$800,000 level still applies.<\/p>\n

The distinction lies in the grandfather clause. This provision allows EB-5 petitions already on file to continue to be adjudicated under the law in effect at the time of filing \u2014 notably if the Regional Center Program later lapses. It matters because it shields an investor’s position from shifts in U.S. immigration policy that come after the filing date.<\/p>\n
Applied to EB-5, and according to the source, the provision gives investors the following protections:<\/p>\n
- \n
- The US$800,000 investment level is preserved, for investments in a TEA project.<\/li>\n
- The petition continues to be adjudicated and is not suspended if the EB-5 program is interrupted.<\/li>\n
- The petition is not affected by the revised investment amount or the revised filing conditions that take effect from 2027 onward.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
In short, a petition properly filed on or before September 30, 2026 is treated under the investment amount and the program rules in effect on its filing date, which reduces an investor’s exposure to subsequent legal change. Grandfathering does not, however, guarantee that a petition will be approved, nor does it shorten any visa queue.<\/p>\n
Expected changes to the EB-5 program after 2026<\/strong><\/h2>\n
Under the EB-5 Reform and Integrity Act of 2022 (RIA), the program’s investment amount adjusts automatically under the statute in line with the Consumer Price Index (CPI) on a five-year cycle, and U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) applies the adjusted amount to petitions it receives. The first adjustment takes effect on January 1, 2027. Petitions filed after September 30, 2026 are therefore no longer assured of the current US$800,000 level and may instead be subject to a new amount reflecting cumulative inflation.<\/p>\n
IIUSA, the largest EB-5 trade association in the United States, projects that the investment amount for projects in a Targeted Employment Area (TEA) could rise toward US$1 million once the CPI adjustment is applied. That is a material difference in cost, and one that can bear directly on a family’s long-term financial planning.<\/p>\n
Beyond inflation, EB-5 policy can also move with the priorities of each administration. The history of the EB-5 program shows that the risk of interruption is real: in 2021, reauthorization of the EB-5 Regional Center Program lapsed and many regional center petitions were held up for extended periods. Reauthorization by the U.S. Congress has not always proceeded smoothly.<\/p>\n
Filing before September 30, 2026 therefore does more than preserve the current investment amount. It also helps ensure a petition continues to be adjudicated even if the law changes or regional center operations are disrupted.<\/p>\n
Factors to weigh before deciding to move early<\/strong><\/h2>\n
Filing an EB-5 petition<\/a> in the current window is not simply a matter of “seizing an opportunity”; it is better understood as strategic risk management, particularly in light of the 3 timing factors the source sets out below.<\/p>\n
1. Potential changes to policy and the investment amount<\/strong><\/h3>\n
One of the significant changes introduced by the EB-5 Reform and Integrity Act of 2022 (RIA) is that the EB-5 investment amount will be adjusted every five years in line with the Consumer Price Index (CPI), beginning January 1, 2027.<\/p>\n
There is precedent for a steep increase: the EB-5 investment amount rose from US$500,000 to US$900,000 in 2019. Citing current inflation, IIUSA projects that the present US$800,000 level could rise toward US$1 million after January 1, 2027.<\/p>\n
2. Visa quotas and the priority date<\/strong><\/h3>\n
Roughly 10,000 EB-5 visas are available worldwide each year, and allocation is subject to a per-country limit. Once demand from a given country exceeds that limit, new petitions join a queue \u2014 the backlog \u2014 and are processed in order of priority date.<\/p>\n
- \n
- China and India have been in backlog for several years.<\/li>\n
- Some markets, including Vietnam, remain within their visa allocation for now, although filing volumes over the past 12 months have grown faster than projected.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Filing early establishes an earlier priority date in the queue, which can matter if demand from an investor’s country of chargeability later exceeds its per-country limit.<\/p>\n
3. Concurrent filing \u2014 an advantage for investors already in the United States<\/strong><\/h3>\n
The RIA of 2022 allows investors who are lawfully present in the United States on a nonimmigrant visa, such as F-1, H-1B, or E-2, to file concurrently:<\/p>\n
- \n
- Form I-526E, Immigrant Petition by Regional Center Investor, which leads to a conditional green card, and<\/li>\n
- Form I-485 (application to register permanent residence or adjust status).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
The benefits:<\/p>\n
- \n
- Concurrent filing allows the applicant to remain lawfully in the United States while the EB-5 petition (Form I-526E) is pending, even if the earlier nonimmigrant status, such as F-1, expires.<\/li>\n
- The applicant may also file Form I-765, Application for Employment Authorization, and Form I-131, Application for Travel Document, which can provide advance parole for travel in and out of the United States. Together these allow the applicant to continue working, traveling, and holding lawful status in the United States.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Please note: this option is available only to applicants who are lawfully present in the United States at the time of filing, and concurrent filing also requires that an EB-5 visa number be immediately available for the applicant’s country of chargeability \u2014 a point to confirm against the U.S. Department of State’s monthly Visa Bulletin before filing. On short-term visas such as B-1\/B-2, concurrent filing carries significant legal risk and warrants careful consideration.<\/a><\/p>\n
In practice, this route suits families whose children are studying in the United States, as well as investors already working and living there lawfully, because it lets them use the current window to begin regularizing their status sooner.<\/p>\n
4. The EB-5 petition: a demanding process that calls for early preparation<\/strong><\/h3>\n
Filing a compliant EB-5 petition involves far more than submitting forms. It is a legal and financial exercise that typically takes 6\u201312 weeks to prepare. The main steps include:<\/p>\n
- \n
- Mapping out the strategy and assembling documentation that evidences a lawful source of funds.<\/li>\n
- Selecting an EB-5 project and conducting due diligence on it, assessing its job-creation feasibility and its risk profile.<\/li>\n
- Preparing, translating, and reviewing personal documents to meet USCIS requirements.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Because preparation takes time, an investor who waits until shortly before September 30, 2026 to begin may not be ready to file while the US$800,000 level still applies.<\/p>\n
