When are EB-5 funds transferred into the escrow account and released? As I understand, it takes more than 12-18 months for the USCIS to process an I-526 application. Does the applicant need to transfer the $500,000 before filing and wait for the USCIS to approve or disapprove the application? What options are there for releasing the funds early?

The EB-5 regulations and policies allow the personal funds to be already invested ( directly transferred into the new commercial enterprise from the personal account of the investor), or be in the process of investing ( personal investment funds transferred into an escrow account and then can be released at the time of approval of the I-526 petition, or at the time of filing the I-526 petition or at the time of acceptance of the subscription agreement by the new commercial enterprise).
