Understanding the National Interest Waiver for Pilots
The National Interest Waiver is a provision in U.S. immigration law that allows highly skilled foreign professionals, including pilots, to bypass the labor certification process and obtain a green card directly. By demonstrating their exceptional abilities and illustrating how their work benefits the national interest of the United States, pilots can seek permanent residency without the need for employer sponsorship.
NIW Process
The process of obtaining a National Interest Waiver (NIW) for pilots involves several key steps that require careful attention to detail. At Buitrago Law Firm, we guide pilots through each stage of the process, ensuring all requirements are met. Here’s an overview of the steps involved in applying for an NIW:
- First, we determine if you qualify for the EB-2 National Interest Waiver based on your background, skills, and experience as a pilot.
- We help you collect the necessary evidence to demonstrate that your work benefits the U.S. and aligns with national interests.
- Once your eligibility is confirmed and documentation is ready, we file your I-140 petition with USCIS, requesting the National Interest Waiver.
- After filing, we monitor the progress of your case, addressing any requests for additional evidence or clarification from USCIS.
- Upon approval of your I-140, we assist in filing the I-485 application to adjust your status to a lawful permanent resident.
Throughout the process, our experienced team ensures your case is handled efficiently, increasing your chances of success in obtaining permanent residency through the National Interest Waiver.
