What happens with my consular processing for my EB-5 application if my country of residence change after I apply?

I am an Indian citizen and recently got my canadian PR and would be moving to Canada after 2 months.
If I get my i-526 approval for EB-5 before that, will my consular processing need to be done in India or Canada?

And in case the i-526 approval comes later, say after 6 months and I have already settled in Canada, then will the consular processing be in India or Canada?

My dependent child is in Canada on a student visa. Where will his consular processing be?

You may be able to change the location by contacting the NVC.

That is not a problem; you simply have to file an I-824 form for the U.S. consulate in your country of residence, to be notified to schedule your green card interview.

Since you now a resident of Canada, you can ask the National Visa Center to schedule your interview in Montreal.

You should request a change of consulate now to Montreal. If it gets approved before this can happen then just tell NVC.

You can process in your country of origin or current residence. The same goes for your child.

You would need to update your country of residence with NVC to process in Canada.

Have you asked your own lawyer about this? Usually you can get the case transferred to your new home country.
