How does USCIS verify regional center project job creation at the I-829 stage? A regional center EB-5 project will be using the expenditure/revenue model in its economic analysis. Let's say there are 50 direct jobs, 20 indirect jobs, and 10 induced jobs in the "Operational" job category calculations. During the I-829 stage, will USCIS still want to see evidence (such as W-2s) verifying the 50 direct jobs or would the evidence of actual expenditure/revenue be sufficient? How does USCIS verify regional center project job creation during the I-829 stage?

At the I-829 stage an experienced EB-5 Economist will play an important role in providing the required information and documentation to clearly show the job creation. In a Regional Center EB-5 project the required jobs are shown by indirect methodologies and the W-2 and I-9 documents do not have to be shown.
