Immigration AttorneyIt is possible to be in the process of investing when you file I-526 petition, as long as you can demonstrate by preponderance of the evidence that you have committed a certain amount or percentage of the lawfully sourced and traced personal EB-5 funds and are contractually committed to complete your EB-5 investment by a date X and the funds are readily available. It is very likely that you will receive a request for evidence from USCIS, which you will need to prevail on for a successful outcome on your I-526 petition if you are not fully invested at the time you file I-526 petition. Please keep in mind that if you are buying an existing business, there are other problematic issues to be addressed before you invest.
