My I-526 has been approved but I do not want to proceed to the next step in EB-5. I”ve already become a permanent resident from another EB program. How can I get my EB-5 investment back?

Other than that you can always ask but absent misrepresentation or the fact you wish to abandon is not in itself a basis to demand a refund.

Besides the immigration withdrawal, the more immediate issue is whether the project is able/willing to refund your money at this time. For most projects, once your I-526 is approved, you may be locked into the term of the investment. Good luck.

Securities AttorneysYou should have an attorney well-versed in securities law review your offering documents to ascertain what the procedures are to withdraw your money. Your partnership or operating agreement should also have relevant information. Follow the redemption instructions to the letter.
