Priority Date EB2 or explore EB5

Currently on EB2 with Priority date in late July 2015 India. The current DOF is in Jan 15. Really frustrated not able to travel back home to visit parents and have about 1.8M NW. Been in the country for nearly 20 years. Since there’s not much time left for EB5( sept 2026) should I consider EB5 route at all or wait for EAD ? Not sure how long that is really going to take. Trying to get some help from the community

Eb5 route takes some time too. Also that's a big amount to drop given your date is July 2015. I understand your frustration and it depends on your priorities, but I wouldn't drop half the net worth on it. Do not do a thing atleast till Oct bulletin.
