The receipt date for my EB-5 I-829 is May 2020. I am thinking of filing a mandamus to expedite my case. Does a mandamus result in an RFE or denial of my petition? Is it advisable in this case?

EB-5 Immigration attorneysThe government is barred from retaliating because you pursue your legal rights, at the same time, it may be prudent to ensure there was adequate job creation and the case is otherwise approvable, where possible.

EB-5 Immigration attorneysYour case could very well be ripe for a mandamus action - the facts of your specific case, including where you reside, will also play a role.

EB-5 Immigration attorneysA writ of mandamus has nothing to do with substance of your petition; WOM concerns only a delay. If your I-829 should be RFEd, it will be whether you file a WOM or not. If you file a WOM, it will be RFEd sooner.
