EB-5 News USCIS Extends Green Card Validity for I-829 investors

EB-5 News

USCIS is extending the validity of Permanent Form I-829, Petition by Investor to Remove Conditions on Permanent Resident Status for 48 months beyond the card’s expiration date. This change started on January 11, 2023, for Form I-829.

USCIS has updated the language on Form  I-829 receipt notices to extend the validity of a Green Card for 48 months for individuals with a newly filed Form I-829.

USCIS will issue new receipt notices to eligible conditional permanent residents who previously received notices with an extension shorter than 48 months and whose cases are still pending.

These receipt notices can be presented with an expired Green Card as evidence of continued status, while the case remains pending with USCIS. By presenting your updated receipt notice with your expired Green Card, you remain authorized to work and travel for 48 months from the expiration date on the front of your expired Green Card.
