2022 根据美国法律，个人可以向联邦法院提起诉讼，要求法院强制美国政府采取一些行动。 该诉讼源 自英国普通法，被称为“执行令状”。 其核心是个人的申诉，他们认为政府的拖延或不作为正在给 他们造成伤害。 对于在美国政府处理其移民申请时遇到不合理延误的个人来说，执行令作为最后手段的重要性与 日俱增。 EB-5 案件中的执行令 提交执行令可以成功有效的促使美国政府就延误多年的 I-526 和 I-829 投资者的绿卡申请做出决定。 在拜登政府的领导下，美国移民局（“USCIS”）和美国司法部倾向于避免就与延迟的 I-526 和 I-829 申请有关的执行令进行庭审对质。然而，拜登政府已将部分 I-526 执行令案件推送至法庭，因为这 些 I-526 申请涉嫌欺诈和影响国土安全的问题。 I-829 申请更有可能在执行令诉讼中获得成功。 I-829 申请的相关法律规定美国移民局必须要在提 交 I-829 申请或 I-829 面试后的 90 天内对 I-829 申请作出裁决，以较晚者时间为准（INA 第 216A(c)(3)节）。这就是为什么申请人在递交申请后等待一两年后再要求美国移民局做出批准 I829 的要求是合理的。因此，申请人可以在不超过美国移民局网站上规定的处理时限就可以提交 I829 执行令诉讼。 申请联邦法院执行令的关键步骤摘要 1. 起草起诉书 起诉书需要罗列出法院管辖权、被告、诉求以及补救措施。 7-10 天 2. 通知美国移民局的法律顾问 我们会将起诉书送至美国移民局，要求在起诉书提交到美国地方法院前友好解决问题。 60 天 3. 向法院提交起诉书 如果美国移民局收到起诉书后 60 天内事项未得到友好解决，我们将会把起诉书递交到美...
