It was a busy morning, and John and Jan, two senior immigration attorneys, were reviewing a new EB-5 petition.

A Conversation Between Two Top Attorneys: John and Jan

John: “Jan, this investor has multiple income sources, property sales, and loans. Tracking the source of funds will take forever.”

Jan: “That’s why our paralegals are crucial. They organize financial records, verify investments, and ensure business plans are USCIS-compliant. By the time it reaches us, everything is clear and ready for legal review.”

John: “I see. And this also reduces errors and speeds up submission?”

Jan: “Exactly. Plus, with ImmiSupport, we get trained virtual paralegals who specialize in EB-5 petitions-saving us time and improving client satisfaction.”


How Immigration Paralegals Simplify EB-5 Petition Preparation?

1. Compiling Source-of-Funds Documentation

Paralegals gather tax returns, bank statements, property sale records, and loans, creating a clear financial timeline that USCIS can easily follow.

Example: An investor sold a commercial property overseas. The paralegal collected the sale contract, bank transfer receipts, and title documents, then mapped the full flow of funds into the U.S., making it easy for USCIS to verify the lawful source of funds.

2. Organizing Investment Records

They verify wire transfers, escrow agreements, and partnership contracts, ensuring all investment documents are consistent and properly indexed.

Example: In one case, a paralegal spotted a mismatch between the escrow agreement and the wire transfer amount. By flagging it early, the issue was corrected before submission, preventing a potential RFE.

3. Supporting Business Plans

Paralegals collaborate with business plan writers and economists to ensure job creation projections, market studies, and organizational charts meet USCIS Matter of Ho requirements.

Example: For a regional center project, the paralegal coordinated with an economist to update job creation projections when a business plan needed revisions, ensuring USCIS approval criteria were met.

4. Simplifying Attorney Review

By preparing summaries, case binders, and indexes, paralegals allow attorneys to focus on legal strategy instead of administrative tasks.

Example: In a recent EB-5 case, the paralegal prepared a color-coded index of 150+ documents. The attorney completed the review in hours instead of days, enabling a timely petition filing.

5. Enhancing Client Communication

Paralegals act as liaisons, providing checklists, answering queries, and following up on missing documents, ensuring timely petition submission.

Example: A client was unsure why USCIS required several years of tax records. The paralegal explained the documentation requirements, sent a clear checklist, and collected the missing files within a week, avoiding delays.
