Brazilian applicants will be subject to the expanded DHS access to DOJ criminal databases. While not currently a VWP country, any future 'Preventing and Combating Serious Crime' agreements between the U.S. and Brazil would further automate the vetting of Brazilian EB-1C candidates.
The fee increase raises the cost for Brazilian multinational managers seeking 15-day processing of their I-140 petitions. As there is currently no backlog for Brazil in this category, the impact is strictly financial.
The memo's focus on vetting corporate structures means Brazilian applicants must provide more granular evidence of the multinational entity's operations. This shift is expected to increase the frequency of RFEs, delaying approvals for a country that typically enjoys current priority dates.
With a high volume of L-1A to EB-1C transitions from Brazil, the fee hike will increase the cost of doing business for Brazilian firms in the U.S. However, the lack of severe EB-1 retrogression for Brazil keeps the impact at an informational level.
Brazil has seen a rise in EB-1C filings as more Brazilian companies expand into the U.S. market. The court order prevents a sudden spike in petition costs, allowing for more predictable corporate budgeting for executive relocations.
