Please find attached the EB-5 industry letter from the American Immigration Lawyers Association, The U.S. Chamber of Commerce, the EB-5 Investment Coalition, Invest in the USA, the Real Estate Roundtable and the EB-5 Rural Alliance. We respectfully request a 90 day extension of the comment period from April 11,2017 to July 9, 2017. We state a number of reasons in the letter including potential mootness of these regulations by new legislation, the length of time needed to fully study and comment on the impacts of proposed investment amount increases, application of the January 30, 2017 Executive Order and the January 20, 2017 White House memorandum, and advisability of consolidating the ANPRM and the NPRM. We thank you in advance for your consideration and look forward to working with you on EB-5 Program enhancements.

EB-5 Industry Letter from the American Immigration Lawyers Association, The U.S. Chamber of Commerce, the EB-5 Investment Coalition, Invest In The USA, The Real Estate Roundtable and the EB-5 Rural Alliance. We respectfully request that that the NPRM be withdrawn. To that end, we also urge the agency to amend its Advanced NPRM on EB5 to fold the issues discussed in the NPRM into the ANPRM and extend the ANPRM's comment date to June 10, 2017. We thank you in advance for your consideration and look forward to working with you on EB5 program enhancements. (Also included is Jan 20 letter to President Donald J. Trump)
