(News and views from IBLF staff and attorneys)
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？

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?
我的父母通过EB-5投资申请移民，并且在2014年1月参加了面试。他们都是党员，但没有任何政治职位，USCIS确仍需要一段时间的背景调查。党员的身份是否会影响I-526的获批？同期投资的其他申请人已经获得了临时绿卡，而我父母仍在等待结果，这是否又会降低I-829申请的获批率？
I just managed to get my conditional green card through the EB-5 program and shortly after that I won the electronic diversity visa lottery. May I apply for a permanent green card? Is there any possibility to cancel my participation in investment program and the regional center I invested in and get my money back Is this situation somehow regulated by law or rules (DV Lottery or EB-5 rules)?
I have a B1/B2 visa and have invested approximately $2 million in a U.S. business since 2011. In so doing, eight full time jobs at the peak production period have been created. However, as I cannot avail of any SBA facility with my present B1/B2 visa, I believe that I need to apply for an EB-5 visa. But upon submitting the EB-5 application, I would be barred from travelling to the United States. Can I retroactively apply my investment and job creation when applying for the EB-5 visa? How can a current B1/B2 visa holder travel to the United States after applying for the EB-5 visa?
自2011年起，我投资约200万在美国企业并创造了8个全职岗位，而我一直持B1/B2签证出入境。因为受B1/B2签证所限，我的公司无法使用SBA为中小型企业提供的任何便利政策，所以我考虑通过EB-5申请移民。我的企业是否符合EB-5的要求？如果我申请了EB-5，还能否继续持B1/B2签证出入美国？
If we have a newborn after receiving I-485 approval, but before our intended date of first travel as immigrants to the United States, what should be done to ensure the newborn also travels with us legally?
