We look at your credentials against EB-2 NIW and EB-1A criteria and identify where your case is strong, and where it needs work.

“Dr. Ozi went through my CV in detail, then walked me through exactly where I stood and what still needed work. That clarity was the push I needed to move forward.”
“I came in skeptical about whether my background would qualify. By the end of the call, I had a clear picture and the confidence to begin my application.”
“The toolkit covered everything I needed for my petition letter. Writing a 30-plus page case on your own is daunting, having that guidance made the process far more manageable.”
“We didn’t have time to draft a strong recommendation letter ourselves. Dr. Ozi handled it professionally and quickly, and the result exceeded what we expected.”
“Dr. Ozi shared her own experience going through the EB-2 process, which made a real difference. Knowing she’s worked with candidates across many different fields gave me confidence to move forward.”
The EB-2 NIW is an employment-based, second-preference immigrant visa category that lets certain professionals with an advanced degree or exceptional ability self-petition for a green card, without an employer sponsor or labor certification, when their proposed work is found to benefit the national interest of the United States.
EB-1A is a first-preference immigrant visa category for individuals who can show sustained national or international acclaim in their field, through evidence such as awards, publications, media coverage, or leadership roles. Like EB-2 NIW, it doesn’t require an employer sponsor or labor certification.
Both let you self-petition without a job offer, but they apply different standards. EB-2 NIW asks whether your proposed work has substantial merit and national importance, and whether waiving the usual job-offer requirement benefits the U.S. EB-1A asks whether you’ve already reached a recognized level of achievement in your field, measured against a specific set of criteria. Many applicants qualify for one, the other, or in some cases both.
No. Both EB-2 NIW and EB-1A are built for self-petitioners, so you don’t need an employer to sponsor you or file a labor certification on your behalf.
An advanced degree, or a bachelor’s degree plus years of progressive experience, is one common path into the underlying EB-2 classification, but it isn’t the only route, and EB-1A doesn’t require one at all. It depends on your specific background and evidence.
Both categories are open to a wide range of fields, including business, healthcare, education, the arts, and the social sciences. STEM applicants are common, but they aren’t the only ones who qualify.
Some applicants do take a dual-filing approach when their background supports both categories. Whether that makes sense for you depends on your credentials, which is exactly the kind of thing we can help you think through after your evaluation.
Timelines vary based on the service center, your specific case, and current processing volumes. During your free evaluation, our team can walk you through realistic expectations for your category and circumstances.
