How can I as an EB-5 dependent withdraw from an EB-5 petition?

How can I withdraw from an EB-5 application as a dependent applicant? Can I write a letter to the embassy that i withdraw the application and ask them to kindly update their records or do i have to give a reasoning as well?

You do not need to provide a reason to be excluded as a derivative beneficiary.

You can do that if case is at the embassy; otherwise notify USCIS or NVC depending on where the case is at but be sure this is what you want.

The principal petitioner should have undertaken the withdrawal. However, if he or she is not going to do it, feel free to request for a withdrawal yourself. Also, no reason needs to be given for the withdrawal.

It depends on where you are in the process. If your I-526 is still pending or approved but no NVC process initiated, you do not need to request an NVC invoice or proceed.

Yes, you should be able to do this by sending a letter; you do not need to give a reason. Alternatively, you can just not pay the IV fee and not provide the required civil documents. Either the NVC or the embassy will automatically drop you.

You simply do not have to respond to the interview or further processing for the application. However, you may contact/email the embassy if your case is being processed at the U.S. consulate. If your application is pending based on a filing in the U.S., then the relevant U.S. office should be notified.

What you need to do depends on where you are in the process. You may need to speak with NVC or the consulate or maybe you can do nothing. Speak with your attorney.

Depends on what stage you are at. If the 526 has not been approved, technically, you are not in the system for a green card yet. You can choose not to follow the green card application of the petitioner at NVC stage or I-485. As for the I-526 petition, only the petitioner can withdraw.

Do you really want to give up your chance at a green card? Have you asked your own lawyer?
