In rare instances, it can be, but once approved, the green card process will take just as long. For example, even if candidates from countries currently experiencing visa retrogressions such as China or Vietnam can successfully expedite their I-526, short I-526 processing time might have little to no consequence for them. The conditional green card application in these countries is not current. That said, they might benefit from expedited decisions on their I-526 if they are from a country that is not experiencing visa retrogression at the moment. Although hard to achieve, USCIS will approve an EB-5 request. The petitioner can attempt to show one or more criteria exist, making the approval of their expedite request help the situation or avoid a negative outcome. These criteria in no particular order are:†

a. severe financial loss to an individual or the company,†
b. an extreme emergent situation such as the danger of human rights violations or persecution,†
c. a humanitarian situation as pressing medical or health-related need,†
d. nonprofit status of an organization that furthers the cultural and social interests of the United States,†
e. a Department of Defense or national interest situation,†
f. USCIS error, or
g. Other compelling USCIS interests.
