Material Change in Project

If some applicants included in a I-526 petition have received their conditional green card while others have not, then a material change like change in investment project will disqualify the remaining dependents from conditional permanent residence.

Criminal Conviction

Criminal conviction is a general ground for revocation of green cards. So, this can result in rejection of the I-526 or I-829 petition. You may be eligible for seek waiver from inadmissibility due to criminal conviction but this is a complicated process that will definitely delay your EB-5 immigration cycle.

Divorce

A divorce before I-526 approval and grant of conditional permanent residence will mean only the primary applicant will qualify for the conditional green card. Divorce after grant of a conditional green card may complicate matters for the dependent family member when seeking a permanent green card. See How long you need to wait for EB-5.
