EB-2 NIW self-screen

Anonymous. About 5 minutes. Educational only: it flags issues worth looking at; it does not decide whether you qualify. Your answers stay in your browser unless you choose to send them with a review request.

1. What is your highest degree (U.S. or foreign equivalent)?
2. Is the work you want to do in the U.S. in the same field as your degree or experience?
3. Can you describe a specific proposed endeavor, meaning what you plan to do in the U.S. over the next several years, beyond your current job duties?
4. Who benefits from that work beyond your employer? (select all)
5. Which kinds of evidence do you have? (select all; none is required)
6. Could people outside your organization credibly describe the impact of your work?
7. Country of birth (used only to explain visa-bulletin timing)
8. When do you hope to file?

Want an attorney to review your profile?

The attorney reviews your request in writing; there is no call. If a paid NIW Strategy Assessment ($950) appears to be a reasonable next step, you receive an invitation with a short engagement letter. If not, you receive a brief note explaining why a paid assessment isn't the right next step now.

This review request is separate from the anonymous self-screen above: it asks for your contact details so the firm can run a conflict check. All fields are required unless marked optional.

If you select this option, the answers from this self-screen will be included with your request for attorney review. Leave it unchecked if you prefer to send only your contact and review-request information.

Submitting this form does not create an attorney-client relationship. Please don't include private details.

What happens next

  1. Conflict check (usually within 1 business day).
  2. If it clears, supporting documents will be requested securely if needed. Please don't send documents now.
  3. Written attorney review, then either an invitation to the NIW Strategy Assessment or a short note.

No numerical score. No approval prediction. No guarantee. USCIS decides every petition on its own record.
