USCIS, Oct. 26, 2023
"We are 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.
This update incorporates changes from the EB-5 Reform and Integrity Act of 2022 into the Policy Manual, building on the initial update that incorporated such changes on Oct. 6, 2022.
This update reorganizes Part G, Volume 6 of the Policy Manual, and includes a few revisions to the content published in October 2022 to reflect the new organization. It also updates the chapter on adjudication of investor petitions for classification and adds new content on regional center designations and obligations, project applications, and direct and third-party promoters, including registration.
Further updates to EB-5 guidance in the Policy Manual are forthcoming, and will include revisions to Chapter 5, Removal of Conditions.
The new guidance is effective immediately and is controlling, and supersedes any related prior guidance."
