USCIS Approves I-526E Petition for Investor in CMB Regional Centers Southern California Project

September 11th, 2025

CMB Regional Centers (CMB), one of the most experienced regional center operators in the EB-5 industry, today announced that an investor in the CMB Group 86 – Gable House Apartments EB-5 project has received United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) approval on their I-526E petition.

The approval represents the first for investors in the Group 86 project and comes on the heels of yesterday’s announcement of the first I-526E approval for an investor in CMB Group 81 – Inland Empire Industrial, another high-unemployment EB-5 project from CMB.

“It’s invigorating to see a steady stream of I-526E adjudications for investors in our high-unemployment projects,” said Noreen Hogan, President at CMB. “We congratulate this investor on achieving such an important milestone in their immigration journey.”

Form I-526E is submitted to USCIS by prospective immigrants participating in EB-5 through the Regional Center Program. Petitions are adjudicated based upon investor-specific criteria. Per EB-5 program guidelines, I-526E petitions may be adjudicated once the project has been formally approved by USCIS via the I-956F petition.

Located in Torrance (California), the Hillwood Gable House Apartments project encompasses the development and construction of a 218-unit, mixed-use complex. Featuring a sky deck, pool lounge, social club, and other best-in-class amenities, the development is in the city’s Del Amo Business District.

Across more than 40 EB-5 partnerships, CMB and Hillwood have cultivated one of the most successful lender-borrower relationships in the EB-5 industry. CMB and Hillwood EB-5 partnerships have resulted in over $500 million in repayment to investors.

CMB and Hillwood are currently collaborating on CMB Group 100 – Hillwood Flywheel (Build-to-Suit), which is open for subscription. The CMB Group 100 EB-5 funds will be utilized for the development and construction of a Class-A build-to-suit distribution facility near Richmond (Virginia) to meet the needs of the tenant, a world-renowned manufacturer of building toys.
