Quick answer
What is USCIS Form I-956G used for?
Designated regional centers use this form to provide required information, certifications and evidence to support their continued eligibility for regional center designation.
I-956G is the regional center’s annual compliance statement
Form I-956G reports annual information for a designated EB-5 regional center. It is not the initial designation application and does not replace project or investor filings. The statement should reconcile the regional center’s identity, ownership and management, sponsored projects, investors, capital activity, job-creation information, litigation or compliance events, and other required annual data.
Build the filing from controlled records rather than reconstructing the year at the deadline. Compare the report with prior I-956, I-956H, I-956F, securities, corporate, and investor-facing materials and explain material changes. Missing or inconsistent annual information can affect more than one case connected to the regional center, so establish a documented review process and retain the source schedules supporting every reported figure.
