USCIS Gives I-956F Approval for CMB Regional Centers Southern California Project
DALLAS, Aug. 21, 2024 – CMB Regional Centers (CMB), one of the most experienced regional center operators in the EB-5 industry, today announced that its Group 86 – Gable House Apartments project has received Form I-956F approval from the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS). A limited number of units remain available for subscription in this I-956F approved CMB EB-5 partnership.
“We are thrilled to see yet another of our high unemployment (TEA) projects approved by the USCIS in less than 5 months, surpassing the processing time we have observed for even the rural category,” said Garrett Connors, Vice President of Investor Relations at CMB. “With only a limited number of EB-5 investment units still available for this project, the I-956F approval marks a significant step forward for the development and a major milestone for our investors’ United States immigration pursuits.”
As one of the first major multi-family projects in Torrance, California, in approximately 50 years, the Hillwood Gable House Apartments project encompasses the development and construction of a 218-unit, mixed-use complex. Featuring a sky deck, pool lounge, social club, and other best-in-class amenities, the development will be located in the city’s urban core of the Del Amo Business District.
The milestone for the Group 86 CMB EB-5 partnership means investor’s I-526E petitions could be immediately adjudicated by the USCIS since the I-956F has been approved. The approval marks the eighth CMB EB-5 partnership to achieve an I-956F approval under the EB-5 Reform and Integrity Act of 2022 (RIA). Previously approved partnerships include:
- CMB Group 78 – Hillwood California BTS
- CMB Group 81 – Inland Empire Industrial
- CMB Group 82 – Hazleton Logistics Park
- CMB Group 83 – Hillwood SOMI Hayward
- CMB Group 87 – Kona Bay Hampton Hotel
- CMB Group 88 – Hillwood Detroit Fairgrounds
- CMB Group 91 – Hillwood DTW Air Cargo
This is the seventh I-956F approved CMB EB-5 project in conjunction with Hillwood Development Company. With over 40 EB-5 projects and more than $500 million in loan repayment to investors, CMB and Hillwood Development Company have cultivated one of the most successful lender-borrower relationship in the EB-5 industry.
“This latest achievement is an exemplary testament to the strength of our partnership with Hillwood Development Company and to CMB’s relentless dedication to helping families make their immigration dreams a reality,” said Noreen Hogan, President at CMB. “We could not be more excited about this latest, timely I-956F approval, an achievement that brings our investors that much closer to realizing their goal of immigrating to the United States.”
