E-2 Under Heightened Scrutiny: USCIS & Embassy Trends 

Join us on March 10 at 12 PM ET for a webinar on how immigration attorneys can navigate the evolving landscape of E-2 visa adjudications in an era of heightened scrutiny. 

E-2 Under Heightened Scrutiny: USCIS & Embassy Trends is designed for immigration professionals who are seeing increased RFEs, tougher consular interviews, and closer examination of business plans and want to understand what’s changed, what officers are targeting, and how to prepare stronger filings from the start. 

In this session, Gerald Padilla, VP of Sales at Joorney, sits down with Bobby Chung, an immigration attorney specializing in E-2 Investor Visas, to discuss how USCIS and U.S. embassies are reviewing business plans today, what’s triggering scrutiny, and how attorneys can position their clients for success. 

Bobby Chung focuses exclusively on the E-2 Investor Visa and has extensive experience representing foreign entrepreneurs in matters involving newly established entities and existing business acquisitions. Before entering private practice, Bobby served as an Attorney Advisor with the U.S. Department of Justice, Executive Office for Immigration Review, where he assisted federal immigration judges in adjudicating immigration cases. 

Some questions that will be answered: 

• How has E-2 scrutiny shifted at USCIS and U.S. embassies over the past two to three years?

• Are officers focusing more on credibility of the business, the applicant, or both? 

• What evidence do officers now expect to see to avoid “paper enterprise” concerns? 

• How are adjudicators distinguishing between speculative projections and credible growth? 

• What financial inconsistencies are triggering RFEs most frequently right now? 

• How detailed do revenue assumptions need to be to survive today’s scrutiny? 

• What signals in a business plan trigger marginality concerns at initial filing and renewal? 

• What are the most common business-plan-related RFEs attorneys are seeing today? 

• How can attorneys better collaborate with business plan providers to anticipate officer concerns before filing? 

This webinar is built for immigration attorneys handling E-2 cases who want to understand the current adjudication environment, avoid common pitfalls, and deliver stronger, more credible filings for their clients.
