AILA Webinar on EB-5 Regulations – Must Attend Event for Immigration Lawyers

Hear from those who have been close to the ground on both the Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM) and the final EB-5 Modernization Regulations.

The panelists will cover the key changes with a “boots-on-the-ground” perspective answering: What are the changes? How these rules impact my clients? How does the November 21, 2019 effective date work?

Ample Q&A session will be open at the end. This event is open to both AILA members and non-members.
