Form I-526E – Immigrant Petition by Regional Center Investor (Fillable PDF)

The Form I-526E is the official USCIS petition used by investors who are participating in a Regional Center EB‑5 project. This fillable PDF lets you provide the required personal, investment, and project details so USCIS can evaluate your eligibility under INA 203(b)(5)(E).

What Is Form I-526E?

Form I-526E is distinct from the standalone I‑526 petition. It is specifically for:

• Investors pooling capital with a USCIS‑approved Regional Center.
• Petitioners reporting amendments when a Regional Center, enterprise, or job‑creating entity changes status.

Submitting the correct form helps prevent delays or rejections.

Key Sections & Required Attachments

Pay special attention to these sections:

• Part 1 – Information About the Investor: Full legal name, passport details, and address.
• Part 2 – Investment Information: Amount invested, source of funds, and the Regional Center’s SEVIS ID.
• Part 3 – Project Details: Name of the project, job‑creation estimates, and timeline.
• Supporting Documents: Business plan, proof of lawful source of funds, and Regional Center approval letter.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

• Leaving any required field blank – the form will be rejected.
• Using an outdated PDF edition – always use the latest version (see download link).
• Submitting a combined fee payment with other forms (USCIS now requires separate payments).
• Signing the PDF with a scanned signature; use a digital signature tool or print‑sign‑scan.

Where to Submit Your Completed Petition

After completing the form, mail it to the appropriate USCIS lockbox address listed on the USCIS filing instructions. Include the separate filing fee and any required supplementary forms (e.g., G‑1450 for credit‑card payments).
