In this post attorney Jacob J. Sapochnick discusses the new changes to the October visa bulletin and how these changes can affect your family based or employment based petition.

The October 2015 Visa Bulletin from the U.S. Department of State shows a newly revised system of dual cutoff dates.

As of October, the visa bulletin contains a new, separate cutoff date chart for filing the application for adjustment (form I-485). The cutoff dates in the filing chart are much later than the final action cutoff date chart.

For example, the employment-based, second preference (EB2) for China’s cutoff date for filing in October is May 1, 2014, while the cutoff date for final action is January 1, 2012.

This is a HUGE change, effective as of October 1, 2015, and applies to both the employment-based and family-based categories.

In this video Attorney Jacob J Sapochnick Esq. clarifies the differences between the EB5 Regional Center process and the individual EB5  project

The major advantage of the regional center as compared with an individual EB-5 investment is that indirect employment creation is allowable. In many cases, the sole remaining issues are tracing the funds from the investor to the regional center and proving the lawful source of the investor’s funds. This eliminates the need to deal with the many complicated issues involved in an individual EB-5 petition for which the investment enterprise has not been pre-approved, such as whether the investment entity qualifies as a “new commercial enterprise;” whether the investment is in a “troubled business;” and whether the requisite “direct employment creation” has taken place.
In addition, the regional center option is advantageous because: The foreign national can live anywhere he or she wishes in the U.S.; The foreign national can work anywhere he or she wants; or not work, as he or she pleases; The foreign national’s children may stay in the U.S. and study in the U.S.; and The foreign national can travel in and out of the U.S. as frequently as he or she desires.
