NIW & EB1A Approved Cases
EB1A or EB-2 NIW Green Card
EB1-A
To qualify for an EB-1A green card, you must be able to demonstrate extraordinary ability in one of the following fields: science, arts, education, business, or athletics. In addition, you must possess a certain level of expertise in your field, which indicates that you are one of the few people who have risen to the top of your field, and your professional achievements must be recognized nationally and internationally.
Eb-1A is rarely affected by employment-based immigration. At present, for applicants born in mainland China, among the first three priority categories of employment-based immigration, only the first category has sufficient quotas, the trial time is short, and can be expedited. Applicants must meet any three of the following ten criteria stipulated in the immigration law:
Nationally or Internationally Awarded
Invited Membership
Published Material About You
Judging or Review
Original Contributions
Scholarly Articles
Exhibitions or Showcases
Leading/Critical Role
High Salary
Commercial Success
EB2-NIW
National Interest Waiver (NIW) is a special case of EB2, the second priority of employment-based immigration in US immigration law. In the normal second-priority application for employment-based immigration, the applicant not only needs a US employer, but also a commitment from the US employer to provide a permanent job, and the employer applies for labor certification to the Ministry of Labor. To qualify for an EB-2 NIW Green Card, you must pass (1) the general EB-2 eligibility test and (2) the National Interest Waiver test.
(1) General EB-2 eligibility test
Meeting 1 of the following 2 criteria can pass the general EB-2 eligibility test:
You have an advanced degree (master’s degree or Ph.D.) or equivalent (bachelor’s degree and 5 years of work experience); or
You have demonstrated extraordinary ability in your field.
(2) National Interest Waiver Test
After passing the general EB-2 eligibility test, you must also meet all 3 elements of the national interest waiver test:
Your proposed work has substantial value and national importance;
your ability to advance the work you propose; and
When all factors are balanced, it is in the national interest of the United States to grant you a waiver of regular employment and labor certification requirements
The terms of the US immigration law on NIW applications are very abstract and general, and they are only general statements in the immigration law. The immigration law has not given clear regulations on how to measure whether foreigners meet national interests. Applicants usually apply with the help of professional immigration lawyers.
