I want to make sure I understand the redeployment aspect of my EB-5 investment before I choose the project. Why would my regional center have to redeploy my money? When does this happen? Is it normal?

Immigration Attorneys DirectoryRedeployment is normal for EB-5 petitions filed before the EB-5 Reform and Integrity Act (RIA) was passed on March 15, 2022. Pre-RIA investors must keep their EB-5 investment at risk during the 2-year period of their conditional residency. Thus, if the project is completed before your 2-year conditional residency period is over, the regional center has to redeploy your investment funds into another project to comply with the at-risk requirement of the EB-5 program.
