I wonder why no database provides information to investors, like the project’s current status (I-956F approved), name, regional center, or developer, to be readily accessed? Even with my attorney’s help, I feel like I am researching information all over the place. I have been provided documentation, but who says the information is correct? How do I know the documents are correct? I feel I depend too much on other people to do the due diligence of each project.

If you don’t want to go that route keep asking questions until you get answers and/or look at their immigration track record of I-526 and I-829 approvals, do they have a current I-956F approved, etc.
