I have been holding my conditional green card for 21 months and am eligible to file an I-829 application. I reached out to my regional center three months ago to request the supporting documents for my I-829. I haven’t received them yet. Is there any legal recourse for me in this situation? I think the regional center fails to provide supporting documents in a timely manner. Is this a violation of regulations by the regional center

It is hard to prescribe any legal solution at this time without a good review of your agreement. Advisably, consult your EB-5 attorney on the nature of this situation and how to move forward.

While we often want to file on day one, you need to see what the reason is. If the regional center is decertified, then it can impact investors depending on the stage of the case.
