Are EB-5 visas available to people from any country in the world?
Yes. Q: Does the Child Status Protection Act apply to the EB-5 program. Answer: Generally, yes. According to USCIS, “CSPA allows the time a visa petition was pending to be subtracted from an applicant for permanent residence’s biological age so that the applicant is not penalized for the time in which USCIS did not adjudicate the petition”. Essentially, your child needs to be unmarried and under age 21 at the time the I-526 is filed. To give you an example, if it takes 6 months to adjudicate Form I-526, and your child is 20 years old and 11 months at the time of filing, then your child will still be eligible as a derivative based on this rule.
