On February 11, 2015, U.S. Immigration & Citizenship Services released an updated EB-5 Processing Report reflecting average processing times for the Immigrant Investor Program Office as of December 31, 2014. 

Unfortunately, the overall time for the processing of EB-5 petitions has increased.  It is currently taking the Immigrant Investor Program Office about 14 months to process an I-526 petition.  While this is only slightly longer than previously reported, there has been a real upswing in the times to process a Form I-829, Petition by Entrepreneur to Remove Conditions, and Form I-924, Application for Regional Center Under the Immigrant Investor Pilot Program. It is currently taking 11.4 months and 11.1 months, respectively, to process these petitions.
