I am from India and thinking of investing in a direct EB-5 project in a rural region. I have heard of priority processing but am not sure if it is enforced yet. I have also hired a manager who can handle day-to-day operations. Is there any chance my application will be processed in a year?

A year ago the hope was rural cases would be processed in a year or less - once we start to see rural approvals we can better gauge what the timeline will be.
