If you're considering an EB-5 investment before the September 30 grandfathering deadline, this is your opportunity to look beyond renderings and see a project that's already being built.
Most EB-5 projects ask you to trust a rendering. Today, we're taking you directly to a real construction site in Hawaii for a live project briefing.
Join Mike Drutar, Director of Sales at Kainani Above Keauhou Bay, for a live briefing on a 120-home luxury townhome community on Hawaii's Big Island — where every home is built to be sold, and unit sales create a defined path toward capital repayment.
<h2>What You'll See</h2>
A real, in-progress rural EB-5 project — construction footage straight from the site, the investment structure behind it, and how the Phase 1 pre-sale creates a path to capital repayment. This is the same <a href="https://eb5beyond.com/projects/hawaii-big-island-townhomes">I-956F-approved Beyond Paradise 1 project</a> covered in our construction updates.

EB-5 Industry Forum

16th Annual Invest In the USA (IIUSA) EB-5 Industry Forum

RFE and NOID patterns have shifted in 2026 - and the two areas where EB-5 filings face the most friction remain the least examined by investors: source-of-funds documentation strategy and capital protection structures.Adjudicators are applying different scrutiny to SDIRA-funded filings, HELOC documentation, margin loans, and gift-based funding strategies than they were six months ago. On the capital side, the distinction between a senior loan label and a first lien position - and what the NCE Manager’s fiduciary obligation actually covers - is more consequential than most investors realize.With fewer than six months until the September 30, 2026 grandfathering deadline, and source-of-funds preparation requiring three to six months, the window to build a defensible filing strategy is narrowing.In this session, Phuong Le and Hallie Schechter from KLD LLP will break down the adjudication trends shaping filings right now, and Jenny Zhan, CEO of Beyond International Group, will walk through the capital protection structures and NCE Manager framework that determine how your investment is actually protected.<h2>What We Will Cover</h2><ol><li data-list="bullet">Path of Funds vs. Source of Funds</li><li data-list="bullet">The distinction triggering the majority of RFEs - why confusing the two remains the most common filing mistake, and what documentation strategies are holding up under current adjudication.</li><li data-list="bullet">2026 RFE and NOID Patterns by Funding Method</li><li data-list="bullet">What’s changed across SDIRA (the NOID wave and which documentation is working), HELOC, margin loans, gifts, and unsecured lending.

Source of funds adjudication, RFE and NOID patterns, capital protection structures, and NCE Manager obligations.

What’s changed in 2026: the distinction between path of funds and source of funds that triggers most RFEs, and which documentation strategies are holding up under current scrutiny.

Source of Funds Adjudication

Real patterns from active cases across SDIRA, HELOC, margin loans, gifts, and unsecured lending - not theory, but what adjudicators are flagging right now.

RFE & NOID Patterns

Bridge financing mechanics, senior loan vs. first lien positioning, and the NCE Manager’s fiduciary obligations - the structural detail that determines capital recovery priority.

Advanced SOF & Adjudication Trends: What’s Changed in 2026 and What It Means for Your Filing

The EB-5 Reform and Integrity Act created a narrow window of protection: petitions filed before September 30, 2026 are grandfathered under current law, even if the Regional Center program is not reauthorized. But meeting that deadline is only half the equation. A filing strategy built on the wrong source-of-funds documentation, a misunderstood rural designation, or an overlooked NCE manager can unravel months of preparation.In this webinar, expert immigration attorneys from KLDP and the leadership team at Beyond International Group will walk through the filing strategy decisions that most investors miss — and show you what a well-structured approach actually looks like in practice.<iframe class="ql-video" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="true" src="https://player.vimeo.com/video/1180505794?share=copy&amp;fl=sv&amp;fe=ci"></iframe> <h2>What We Will Cover:</h2><ol><li data-list="bullet">Why Rural Changes Your Filing Strategy — Rural EB-5 designation is more than a visa advantage — it changes how your petition is processed, how quickly it moves, and how it's protected. We'll cover what the rural TEA designation means in practice, how priority processing is accelerating rural petitions, what the recent USCIS inventory management shift signals for processing timelines, and why the September 30, 2026 grandfathering deadline makes filing strategy a time-sensitive decision.</li><li data-list="bullet">Source of Funds — Where Most Filing Strategies Fall Apart — Source of funds is the single most common reason EB-5 petitions face delays, RFEs, or denials. We'll walk through the documentation pitfalls most investors don't anticipate, how loan-based scenarios are scrutinized, why documentation timelines need to start months before filing, and what immigration attorneys are seeing in current adjudications.</li><li data-list="bullet">The Due Diligence Most Investors Skip — Who's Managing Your Money? — Most investors evaluate the Regional Center and the project. Almost none evaluate the NCE Manager — the entity that actually holds and deploys your capital. We'll explain what happens after I-956F approval, how fund deployment and job creation oversight work, what fiduciary responsibility looks like in practice, and why the NCE Manager is the layer of diligence that separates protected investors from exposed ones.</li><li data-list="bullet">What a Strong Filing Strategy Looks Like in Practice — We'll bring every element together with a live project example — Beyond Paradise 1, our I-956F-approved rural EB-5 project on Hawaii's Big Island. Rural TEA designated. Construction underway. Jobs being created. You'll see how the right project, the right filing strategy, and the right management structure work together to protect your immigration outcome.</li><li data-list="bullet">Live Q&amp;A — Bring your questions. Our panel will answer live.</li></ol>

Most EB-5 investors spend weeks comparing projects. Very few spend any time examining the strategy behind their filing — and that's where the real risk lives.
