Your Expertise Is Your Path to a Green Card
The EB-2 National Interest Waiver allows highly skilled professionals and individuals of exceptional ability to self-petition for a green card — without a job offer or employer sponsorship. At Yesildal Law, we craft compelling NIW petitions that showcase your unique contributions to the United States.
Who Qualifies for the EB-2 NIW?
The EB-2 NIW is available to professionals holding an advanced degree or individuals with exceptional ability in science, arts, or business. You must demonstrate that your work is in the national interest of the United States and that waiving the job offer requirement benefits the country.
The Three-Prong NIW Test
USCIS evaluates NIW petitions under the Dhanasar framework, which requires showing that your proposed work has substantial merit and national importance, that you are well-positioned to advance that work, and that waiving the job offer requirement would benefit the United States.
Timeline & What to Expect
EB-2 NIW petitions are filed with USCIS using Form I-140. Premium processing is available for faster adjudication. Our attorneys prepare a thorough petition package including expert recommendation letters, evidence of your achievements, and a detailed personal statement.
Your Work Deserves Recognition — and a Green Card
The EB-2 NIW is one of the most powerful pathways to permanent residence for talented professionals. At Yesildal Law, we build meticulous petitions that demonstrate your exceptional contributions and make a compelling case for why America needs you.
