EB-2 National Interest Waiver (NIW) Approval Success Story
At Green Card Link, our immigration attorneys successfully secured approval for our client’s EB-2 National Interest Waiver (NIW) petition by presenting strong evidence and building a persuasive case. Through detailed documentation and a compelling legal strategy, we demonstrated that our client met all NIW requirements, resulting in a swift approval.
Understanding the EB-2 NIW Requirements
The EB-2 NIW is a valuable option for highly skilled professionals seeking U.S. permanent residency without going through the lengthy PERM Labor Certification process. However, the NIW requires petitioners to meet specific criteria:
- Substantial Merit and National Importance – The proposed endeavor must provide clear value to the United States.
- Well-Positioned to Advance the Endeavor – The foreign national must demonstrate the ability, experience, and expertise to move the proposed work forward.
- Balance in Favor of Waiving the Job Offer Requirement – The applicant must prove that granting the waiver would benefit the United States more than enforcing the usual job offer requirement for EB-2 petitions.
Our immigration attorneys at Green Card Link know how to integrate these components into a strong case, ensuring petitioners stand out to USCIS adjudicators.
