Title: Reopened Proceedings on Petitions for Alien Entrepreneur Immigrant Classification (EB-5 Visas) | |
Abstract: This rule amends the regulations of the Executive Office for Immigration Review (EOIR) of the Department of Justice (Department) to implement changes made by the 21st Century Department of Justice Appropriations Authorization Act of 2001, Public Law 107-273 (Nov. 2, 2002), to the EB-5 Alien Entrepreneur immigrant classification. This rule will be published in conjunction with a corresponding rule of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) that addresses changes to their part of the adjudication. In order to be eligible, an alien must have filed a motion to reopen with the former Immigration and Naturalization Service on or before January 2, 2003, seeking reconsideration of his or her case under this new law. This rule provides the process by which certain aliens, who are seeking immigrant status as alien entrepreneurs, may obtain EOIR review of adverse determinations on the removal of the condition on permanent resident status made by United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS), a component of DHS. In addition, this rule also establishes procedures for aliens who have received favorable determinations on the removal of the condition on permanent resident status and who have final orders of deportation or removal or who have cases that are pending or administratively closed before EOIR. | |
