EB-5 Q&A 问答帖:提前释放资金给投资项目有何风险
几个月前,我向移民局递交了I-526申请。我的EB-5投资资金仍存在托管账户里,直至我的申请获批后,才会发放给投资项目使用。今天我收到区域中心的电话,他们希望得到我的许可,提前释放资金给投资项目。我应该如何答复?如果应允,我可能面对何种风险?

Question Detail: What is the purpose of an EB-5 investor signing the Form W-8BEN? Will the regional center file this form with the IRS?
签署W-8BEN有何意义?区域中心是否会向国税局递交此表?
Question Detail: I know that the business plan is an important component when submitting the I-526 application. However, I have not been able to figure out exactly what the business plan is supposed to include. What are the essential parts of an EB-5 business plan? Will a business plan for a regional center project be different than one for a direct investment project?
标准EB-5项目的申请材料里,商业计划书是很重要的一个组成部分,但我不明白商业计划书具体需要哪些内容。它最重要的部分是哪些?区域中心投资项目的商业计划书与标准投资项目的是否不同?
Question Detail: I will be submitting my I-829 application and would like to work with a different attorney than the one who filed my I-526 and I-485. Is it possible to change attorneys at this late stage in the immigration process? Will I need to provide USCIS with different documentation? How will my EB-5 application be affected if I change immigration attorneys?
在我递交I-829申请时,可否雇佣不同于递交I-526申请的移民律师?我是否需要向移民局递交更换律师的文件?对我EB-5申请是否有影响?

Repost of the American Immigration Lawyers Association: AILA "Take on President Obama’s "Immigration Accountability Executive Action" Plan".
My parents invested through the EB-5 program and were interviewed for their conditional green card in late January 2014. They are communist bankers who do not hold any political position, but USCIS still needed to perform an additional background check. Will their current communist status complicate their I-526 approval? In addition, about 95% of the other investors in the same project have already received their conditional green card. Because we are still waiting for I-526 approval, and are now last in the queue, will our chances of receiving I-829 approval be reduced?
