The EB-5 program has undergone one of the most meaningful transformations in its 30-year history since the passage of the Reform and Integrity Act (RIA) in 2022. With new integrity rules, greater transparency requirements, meaningful protections for investors, and visa set-asides designed to rebalance where investment flows, the post-RIA landscape looks very different from the EB-5 of the past decade.
At a recent CanAm webinar, Chief Operating Officer Christine Chen sat down with Aaron Grau, Executive Director of IIUSA, and Lee Li, IIUSA’s Director of Policy Research and Data Analytics. Their wide-ranging conversation covered everything from the grandfathering timeline to new filing trends, updated adjudication data, rural investment growth, and what the pathway to a permanent reauthorization could look like.
A significant development occurred last week in the EB-5 Program: a federal court reinstated the pre-April 2024 USCIS filing fees for all EB-5 forms, including Form I-526E. USCIS has now updated its website to confirm that these lower fees are legally in effect following the court’s decision in Moody et al. v. Mayorkas et al.
At a time of global uncertainty and shifting U.S. immigration policy, CanAm Enterprises brought together four of the EB-5 industry’s most respected voices for a rare, unfiltered discussion on where the program stands—and where it’s headed next.

The EB-5 Immigrant Investor Program remains one of the most reliable paths to permanent U.S. residency through investment, but investors and their advisors are navigating a shifting regulatory landscape. Recent adjudication trends from U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) are reshaping how investors prepare, document, and fund their EB-5 petitions.
In a recent webinar hosted by CanAm Enterprises, Pete Calabrese, CEO of CanAm Investor Services, sat down with Jennifer Hermansky, Shareholder at Greenberg Traurig LLP and Chair of the AILA EB-5 Committee, to discuss the evolving standards for EB-5 petition adjudications. The discussion covered partial funding strategies, loan-based investments, and the use of self-directed retirement accounts for EB-5.
