What is the most common reason for rejection of a petition to remove conditions?

The most common reasons for refusal of the condition removal petition are in circumstances when the EB-5 enterprise fails to create the required number of jobs or if there was a “material change” in the project between the initial petition and condition removal stages. The term “material change” is a recent USCIS EB-5 development and has not been specifically defined; in essence, it is a new rationale grafted onto the existing law for denying a condition removal. The effect is a denial of the condition removal petition and necessitating the filing of a new, initial petition for the “new” project.
