As the September 30th, 2026, EB-5 grandfathering deadline approaches, investors face a critical decision-making window with long-term immigration consequences. This webinar provides a clear overview of the risks, protections, and strategic options available to new and existing EB-5 applicants.

Our panel of experienced EB-5 immigration attorneys and industry professionals will break down the most important regulatory and legislative developments shaping the future of the EB-5 program.

What You Will Learn

We will cover a range of advanced and often misunderstood EB-5 topics, including:

• CSPA (Child Status Protection Act) — how age-out protections work for dependent children and when they apply
• Grandfathering provisions — what protections investors retain when filing before the statutory deadline, and how grandfathering secures their place in the process
• WOM (Writ of Mandamus) — when litigation is considered to address unreasonable delays, and what outcomes investors can realistically expect
• Visa retrogression — current trends, how visa availability affects filing strategies, and projections for the coming years
• Green Card bans and policy restrictions — potential scenarios that could impact immigration pathways and how investors can mitigate regulatory risks
• The future of the EB-5 program — expected regulatory shifts, adjudication dynamics, and long-term implications for both new and existing applicants

This session is designed for investors who want to understand not only what the rules are, but how to navigate them strategically.
