EB2-NIW

EB2 National Interest Waiver (NIW)

At Delware Consulting, we specialize in helping qualified professionals achieve their U.S. residency through the EB2 National Interest Waiver (NIW) program. This unique immigration option allows individuals with exceptional abilities or advanced degrees to bypass the traditional labor certification process, making it an attractive option for those looking to contribute to the national interest of the United States.

What is the EB-2 NIW Visa?

The EB-2 NIW visa falls under the Employment-Based Second Preference (EB-2) category. It is designed for professionals with advanced degrees or exceptional abilities in their field. Unlike other employment-based visas, the NIW does not require a job offer or labor certification, making it an attractive option for those who meet the stringent criteria.

Benefits of the EB-2 NIW Visa

Unlike many other employment-based visas, the EB-2 NIW does not require a specific job offer, allowing more flexibility for applicants.

The waiver of the labor certification process can significantly reduce the time it takes to obtain a green card.

Professionals from a wide range of fields, including science, arts, and business, may qualify for the EB-2 NIW visa if their work benefits the U.S.

  • Eligibility Criteria for the EB-2 NIW Visa

    • To qualify for the EB-2 NIW visa, applicants must demonstrate that their work is of substantial intrinsic merit and benefits the U.S. Additionally, they must prove that the national interest would be better served by waiving the labor certification requirement. The key eligibility requirements include:

      1. Advanced Degree or Exceptional Ability: Applicants must hold an advanced degree or demonstrate exceptional ability in their field.

      2. Work of National Importance: The applicant's work must have a significant impact on U.S. interests, such as in science, technology, healthcare, or other critical sectors.

  • How to Apply for the EB-2 NIW Visa

    • Applying for the EB-2 NIW visa involves several steps, including:

      1. Prepare Your Petition: Gather evidence of your advanced degree, exceptional ability, and the national importance of your work.

      2. File Form I-140: Submit Form I-140, Immigrant Petition for Alien Workers, along with supporting documentation to the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS).

      3. Wait for Approval: Once your petition is approved, you may apply for adjustment of status or consular processing to obtain your green card.

      4. Seek Professional Guidance: Due to the complex nature of the EB-2 NIW process, it's advisable to consult with an experienced immigration attorney to ensure your application is successful.
