The officers who will process your application are guided by the DHS regulations at 8 CFR section 212.19. We consider ownership interest “substantial” if you (the Form I-941 applicant) possess at least a 10% ownership interest in the start-up entity at the time of adjudication of the initial grant of parole, and if you possess at least a 5% ownership interest in the start-up entity at the time of adjudication of a subsequent period of re-parole.
