8am DocketWise, a leading platform for immigration law news and analysis, recently featured Divij Kishore, Founding Attorney at Flagship Law, in its article “EB-5 visas and the Trump Gold Card: What investors and attorneys need to know.” The piece explores the surge in EB-5 interest and examines the emerging Trump Gold Card proposal.
The piece explores the rising momentum behind the EB-5 investor visa program heading into 2025 and examines how shifting regulations and political rhetoric are shaping investor behavior. Kishore offered perspective on the surge in inquiries his firm is seeing, driven not by ultra-high-net-worth foreign nationals but by skilled professionals already living and working in the United States. These individuals—often with patents, research publications, and backgrounds in major tech companies—are increasingly turning to EB-5 as backlogs and uncertainty impact other employment-based immigration options.
Kishore also addressed the regulatory evolution of the EB-5 program following the 2022 Reform and Integrity Act, noting that higher filing fees, more site visits, and increased audits have actually improved investor confidence by strengthening program integrity. His commentary highlights why EB-5 remains a stable, long-standing path to permanent residency despite political noise.
Flagship Law continues to support employers, investors, and foreign professionals as they adapt to ongoing changes in immigration policy and program requirements.
