Client Case Studies
Case of I.S.
Mr. S used various offshore structures for his businesses. We were able to document the lawful source of his real estate-related earnings, and so his I-526 petition was approved without a problem. The difficulty arose during the second stage of his process, when his son was stopped for drug possession while in the US studying. A conviction for a drug-related crime could have led to his inadmissibility. However, working together with his criminal lawyer, we were able to help him plead the offense down to disorderly conduct, and his application to adjust status was approved.
Case of K.N.
Mrs. N’s husband had no interest in immigrating, but he wanted his wife and daughter to receive green cards. His daughter was a college student in the US and she wanted to stay in the US. EB-5 met his objectives — by investing in an EB-5 project through a Regional Center, he did not need to set up a business in the US or have his wife get involved in managing a business. This enabled his wife and daughter to obtain green cards. With his B visa, he is able to visit them frequently and maintain his thriving business in his home country.
Case of M.Y.
Mrs. Y invested in an EB-5 project, but after receiving a difficult project-related Request for Evidence, decided to withdraw. She was afraid that if she was denied, her daughter would have aged out. So with our assistance, she withdrew her EB-5 petition and received her investment back. In turn, she invested in a new project and submitted a new petition before her daughter turned 21. Her new EB-5 petition was approved, and all of her family members received green cards.
