Decoding USCIS Policy Memo on AOS with Attorney Phuong Le

On May 21, 2026, USCIS released a policy memorandum (PM-602-0199) regarding Adjustment of Status (AOS) that immediately sent shockwaves through the immigration community. The initial guidance heavily scrutinized the AOS process as an "extraordinary relief," suggesting a sweeping push toward Consular Processing (CP) abroad for temporary visa holders. Following widespread concern, subsequent clarifications confirmed that dual-intent nonimmigrant visas (such as H-1B and L-1) remain structurally protected. To cut through the noise and deliver accurate legal clarity, ZEN EB5 hosted an exclusive emergency webinar with leading immigration attorney Phuong Le. In this deep dive, we unpack the technical mechanics of the memo, how it affects current and future filers, and why EB-5 investors holding strong economic-benefit equities are positioned to navigate this shift.
