我的子女持F-1签证，我的太太持B-2签证，我计划在美国提交I-526申请。我是一名医生，因此需要尽快回到我的国家。我听说目前I-526申请的处理期为9个月， 我想知道我需要在美国停留多久？

My I-526 has been approved, but I have not yet undergone consular processing, and thus still am not in the United States. When exactly will I be expected to pay U.S. taxes? For example, will it be as soon as I am interviewed by the consulate, or once I receive my immigration visa in my home country (but have not yet entered the United States), or after I enter the United States with my immigration visa?

我的I-526申请已经获批，但还未开始领事程序，因此未入境美国。我何时应开始报税？是从领事面试后开始，从获得移民签证开始，还是从入境美国后开始？

We have a few potential investors for a direct EB-5 project. However, we feel the project would be more attractive if investors were allowed to make the investment in 10-20 installments totaling $1 million dollars, so that they could begin sharing profits from the beginning. Is it possible for the EB-5 investment to be made in installments? At what point during the immigration process does the full investment have to be completed?

一个100万投资额的标准EB-5项目，如果采用10-20个分期缴纳的模式，投资者可以从一开始就分享收益，我们觉得会更吸引投资者，但不知道是否可行？在什么阶段，投资总额必须全部投入？

Many people are calling our law office to assess what impact the mid-term elections, in which the Republicans have taken control of the Senate, will have upon immigration law and practice. 

Question: What are the rules for short-term investments in funds not related to the NCE or JCE?

问：法律是否允许区域中心使用投资款进行短期投资？

假设一个项目已经获得全额投资款项，但还未将投资款投入EB-5投资项目。在等待项目获批期间，区域中心可否使用该笔款项用于其他短期投资（如18或24个月），从而赚取经营资金？在等待项目获批期间，有多少余地留给区域中心去尝试设立一个投资回报的机制？如果没有，那不是意味着损失（基于通货膨胀）？如果有，那是否表示区域中心可以将投资款项投机在与EB-5无关的项目？

Question: How can I find regional center investment projects?

问：我应当如何寻找区域中心投资项目？

我想要投资区域中心的项目，我想知道寻找目前可投资的区域中心项目有哪些可行的步骤？有哪些好的方式寻找项目？还有哪些我应当注意的？
