Regional center, NCE, JCE, fund administrator. Four terms that come up in nearly every EB-5 offering, and four very different roles.

Which one holds your capital? Which one puts it to work? And who checks that it went where it was supposed to?

Knowing who does what makes it easier to read an offering, ask sharper questions, and compare one regional center to another.

On November 30, 2026, the I-526E filing fee more than doubles.

With the EB-5 Integrity Fund fee, the total at initial filing rises from $4,675 to $8,950. That’s a difference of $4,275 per petition.

The detail many investors miss is that the postmark date on a complete, filed petition sets the fee. The date of the investment doesn’t. Petitions postmarked on or before November 29 pay the current rate.

Then on January 1, 2027, the EB-5 investment minimums are set to rise with inflation.

In 2024, Jiahui Cui was finishing his computer science degree while his parents prepared their EB-5 paperwork. At the time, it didn’t feel real to him.

That changed at graduation. Many of his fellow international students were facing uncertainty about what came next. Jiahui had his combo card in hand, giving him both work authorization and travel permission in the U.S.

“I was lucky; I was fortunate. I felt how much my parents had done for me.”

His father invested in CanAm’s Nextlink Rural Broadband EB-5 Project. Today, Jiahui has the freedom to pursue a people-focused career on his own terms.

Millions of households across rural America still lack reliable high-speed internet. The economics never worked for private providers alone, so the federal government has committed $65 billion to closing the gap.

EB-5 capital has become part of how those networks get built.

In a new video, CanAm's Min Wu and Nick Buonagurio break down how rural broadband EB-5 projects work, from the role of BEAD and BOOT grants to what the structure means for repayment and an investor's green card timeline.

For anyone weighing EB-5 options in a market that has grown tired of luxury real estate deals, rural broadband offers an infrastructure-backed alternative less exposed to economic swings.

How CanAm finances rural broadband networks with EB-5 capital, the federal and state grants behind them, and what the structure means for EB-5 investors.

Most EB-5 conversations start when capital is raised. The measure of an operator shows up years later, in what actually got delivered.

After more than 20 years in EB-5, CanAm Enterprises has helped bring thousands of families through to permanent residence, with more than 9,400 permanent green cards facilitated and over 3,000 I-829 petitions approved. Its financed projects are projected to have created over 83,000 jobs across the country.

A record like that comes from staying with each project through its full life and doing the work it takes to see investors through to the outcomes they were promised.

For investors and advisors weighing where to place their trust, the full arc of a completed EB-5 investment is the clearest answer this industry offers.

There is a corner of the EB-5 program almost no one has used. CanAm just put a project through it.

It is called the infrastructure set-aside, the newest and smallest of the program's three reserved-visa categories, open only to public works run by a government entity. So few projects qualify that it has seen little use. This week, USCIS approved CanAm's Form I-956F for the Pacific Port Logistics Center in Carson, California, our first in the set-aside and our 19th since the Reform and Integrity Act took effect in 2022.

That rarity is the appeal. With demand low, the reserved visas stay available to investors of every nationality, including families from China and India who face some of the longest waits anywhere.

The project earns the attention on its own. A $180 million EB-5 investment is reclaiming a long-contaminated landfill beside the Ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach and turning it into developable industrial land, with a public park planned alongside. A government reclamation authority is the borrower, and CanAm raised and structured the financing.

The approval clears a path most of the industry has left untouched, and it does it on the kind of site that needed the work most.

September 30 came and went, and with it a year of headlines about the EB-5 grandfathering deadline. Many prospective investors now assume the program closed along with it.

It didn’t. The grandfathering filing window closed. The Regional Center Program stays authorized through September 2027 and continues to accept new petitions.

The two get confused easily, and they are worth pulling apart. Grandfathering shielded a filed petition from a future program lapse. Authorization is the question of whether the program is running at all, and it still is. An investor filing today gives up the lapse safeguard but enters an active program under current rules, with the reserved set-aside categories for rural, high-unemployment, and infrastructure projects still current through this fiscal year.

That makes filing after the deadline a real decision rather than a missed one. Our latest piece sets out the tradeoff without varnish: what grandfathering actually protected, how the industry reads the 2027 reauthorization outlook, and what still argues for filing sooner.

The EB-5 grandfathering deadline passed on September 30, 2026, but the program remains open. What filing now means for prospective investors weighing 2027.

Good news for EB-5 investors: the final fee rule came in lower than expected.

As Bloomberg Law reports, DHS reduced the filing fee for regional center investors (Form I-526E) to $7,850, well below the $9,625 proposed last year.

New fees take effect November 30, 2026, so investors who file before November 30 can still take advantage of the current fee schedule.

The rule also funds stronger oversight of the program, including audits and site visits, which helps protect every investor.

With more than 20 years of EB-5 experience, CanAm is here to help you plan your next steps with confidence.

The Department of Homeland Security walked back how much it will raise immigrant investor visa fees in a final rule after draft regulations were released last year.

The Bellwether Innovation Campus EB-5 Project, a build-to-suit facility for TerraPower Isotopes in Philadelphia's The Bellwether District District, has received Form I-956F approval from USCIS.

It is CanAm's 18th project approved under the EB-5 Reform and Integrity Act of 2022.

The approval reflects USCIS's determination that the project complies with EB-5 Regional Center Program requirements.

Thank you to Matthew Galati, John Patrick Pratt, and Kurzban Kurzban Tetzeli and Pratt P.A. for their support in reaching this milestone.

Four years ago, the RIA opened EB-5 to rural America. This week in Washington, we saw the proof that it worked.

When Congress set aside EB-5 visas for rural projects in 2022, it pointed private investment capital toward communities that public programs alone have struggled to reach. But a new pathway on paper finances nothing on its own. What followed was quieter work: teaching a sector that had never used EB-5 how it functions, and earning the confidence of developers weighing it against conventional financing.

That groundwork is paying off. CanAm has financed six closed rural broadband projects, channeling $385.6M in private EB-5 capital alongside more than $1.3B in public broadband funding, helping connect roughly 200,000 homes and businesses across six states, red and blue alike.

At the Invest In the USA (IIUSA) summit and fly-in this week, the message was clear. This capital is finally reaching rural districts at scale, right as federal broadband investment through BEAD ramps up. Letting the program lapse now would strand that momentum at the worst possible moment.

The industry is aligned. The record speaks for itself. And the case for continuity has never been stronger.
