On December 18, 2024, CanAm hosted a timely discussion with Charles Oppenheim (former Chief of Visa Control, U.S. Department of State) and Joey Barnett (Partner, Wolfsdorf Rosenthal LLP), moderated by Pete Calabrese (CEO, CanAm Investor Services).
The panel broke down the January 2025 Visa Bulletin and its “warning shot” about rising EB-5 demand—especially from China and India. While set-aside categories remain current, the experts emphasized that now is the time to file early, secure a priority date, and lock in benefits like EAD and advance parole.
