On Dec. 16, Congressional leaders negotiated and debuted a $1.37 trillion spending package to fund the operational needs of the country and extend vital programs such as EB-5.
The massive spending package is in two packages with Division 1-Extensions, Title 1, Immigration Extensions calling for the EB-5 extension:
17 SEC. 104. Section 610(b) of the Departments of
18 Commerce, Justice, and State, the Judiciary, and Related
19 Agencies Appropriations Act, 1993 (8 U.S.C. 1153 note)
20 shall be applied by substituting ‘‘September 30, 2020’’ for
21 ‘‘September 30, 2015’’.
