On December 18th, 2015, the US Congress passed, and President Obama signed into law, a $1.1 trillion year-end spending “Omnibus” bill. Included in this bill was a 10 month “clean” extension of the EB-5 Immigrant Investor Program, also known as simply the EB-5 Program. This extension, which was originally set to end in on Sept. 30, 2015, has been extended twice before as politicians discuss the merits and shortcomings of the program and what changes needed to be made. Potential investors should be aware of the likely changes to the programs well as ways to avoid EB-5 fraud.
