Abstract
The early stages of Trump's presidency presented a number of remarkable developments and changes in the immigration field, specifically in EB-5. Recent updates such as the increased required minimum investment and reauthorization of the visa program made it more critical for EB-5 applicants, especially now that President Trump pushes a more "American" economic development. In addition, the various proposals to reform EB-5 are viewed to have significant impact on the upcoming legislative debates as part of its reauthorization.
In light of these notable developments, it is interesting to know how the EB-5 visa program will continue to battle amidst the controversies it faces. Its legal and regulatory framework remains an important issue until the year ahead.
