After obtaining an EB-5 investor visa, investors must comply with several key reporting obligations to maintain their immigration status. First, they are required to file Form I-829 within the 90-day period preceding the two-year anniversary of their conditional residency. This petition must demonstrate that the capital investment was sustained and that it directly resulted in the creation of at least 10 full-time jobs for U.S. workers. In addition, EB-5 investors must adhere to U.S. tax laws by filing an annual income tax return (Form 1040) and reporting any foreign financial assets through forms such as FBAR or Form 8938, if applicable. Investors must also notify USCIS of any changes in address by submitting Form AR-11 to ensure timely receipt of immigration-related correspondence. For those who invest through a regional center, the center itself is responsible for submitting annual compliance reports (Form I-924A) detailing project progress and job creation metrics. Adhering to these requirements is essential to secure permanent residency and remain compliant with U.S. immigration law.
