<p>Comment: USCIS Guidance Needed </p>
<div>
We urge USCIS to issue guidance on redeployment of EB5 funds for investors
who are affected by retrogression, through a policy memorandum. We set
forth below why is this guidance sorely needed:
</div>
<div>
<ul>
<li>
Lack of guidance creates unnecessary uncertainty for investors as
well as projects.
</li>
<li>
Projects need to plan long term to have viable redeployment
strategies–this is impossible without clear guidance.
</li>
<li>
Lack of guidance provides no safe harbor for projects.
</li>
<li>
As retrogression already affects China, Vietnam and India, guidance
for redeployment is essential for these high-volume EB5 countries.
</li>
<li>
All investments have risks involved–there is no need to add to the
risk for investors and projects by adding uncertainty about
redeployment of funds due to lack of guidance.
</li>
</ul>
</div>
<div>
Issuance of guidance on redeployment from USCIS is long overdue, and is
hurting investors, projects and consequently the EB5 program. We trust
USCIS will remedy the situation by issuing a policy memorandum promptly.
