What are the potential problems?"},"content":{"rendered":"<p>While F-1 is not an immigrant intent visa, EB-5 is. On a practical matter, there is no problem in applying for it.

If the student needs to extend his F-1 visa or reenter the United States, they need to disclose their pending I-526 petition. The safest path for the F-1 visa-holding student in the United States to take would be to wait until I-526 approval. Once they have an appointment at the consulate for the green card, they could leave the country and return with the permanent residency stamp on their passport.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"template":"","faq_groups":[50],"class_list":["post-12589","faq","type-faq","status-publish","hentry","faq-group-general-information"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.americaeb5visa.com\/punjabi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/faqs\/12589","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.americaeb5visa.com\/punjabi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/faqs"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.americaeb5visa.com\/punjabi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/faq"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.americaeb5visa.com\/punjabi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.americaeb5visa.com\/punjabi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=12589"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"faq-group","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.americaeb5visa.com\/punjabi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/faq_groups?post=12589"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
