EB2 NIW in Nepal

At Charish Consulting, we specialize in assisting skilled professionals, entrepreneurs, researchers, and individuals with outstanding abilities from Nepal to navigate the EB2 NIW (National Interest Waiver) pathway to U.S. permanent residency. The EB2 NIW provides a unique opportunity to obtain a U.S. Green Card without the need for employer sponsorship or labor certification. If you possess specialized knowledge, advanced academic qualifications, or have made significant contributions in your field, the EB2 NIW could be the most effective and flexible route for your American dream.

What is the EB2 NIW?

The EB2 National Interest Waiver (NIW) is a subcategory of the EB-2 employment-based immigrant visa, designed for foreign nationals whose work is considered beneficial to the national interests of the United States. Unlike the traditional EB-2 process which requires both a job offer and labor certification, the NIW allows these requirements to be waived if the applicant can demonstrate that their work serves the broader interests of the United States.

Charish Consulting provides comprehensive guidance through every stage of the application, ensuring that your petition powerfully showcases your unique qualifications and impact.

Understanding the EB2 NIW Visa Category

The EB2 NIW is ideal for individuals from Nepal with exceptional abilities in the sciences, arts, business, or athletics, as well as those whose advanced degrees and work are of significant benefit to the U.S. This category enables eligible applicants to bypass the often lengthy labor certification process required for most employment-based green cards.

Who Qualifies for the EB2 NIW?

To qualify for the EB2 NIW, you must meet both the EB-2 visa standards and the special National Interest Waiver criteria. This means:

• You must hold an advanced degree (such as a Master’s, Ph.D., or equivalent), or demonstrate exceptional ability in your professional field.
• You must prove that your work has substantial merit and national importance.
• You are well-positioned to advance your proposed endeavor in the U.S.
• Granting the NIW would benefit the U.S. more than requiring a job offer and labor certification.

Not sure if you meet the criteria? Charish Consulting can evaluate your credentials and work history and advise you on building a compelling case for your NIW petition.

How the EB2 NIW Process Works for Applicants in Nepal

Applying for the EB2 NIW from Nepal is a multi-step process, and Charish Consulting is with you every step of the way. Here’s what you can expect:

Step 1: Initial Consultation & Eligibility Assessment

We start with a thorough review of your educational background, career accomplishments, and professional profile to assess your eligibility. If needed, our experts will guide you on strengthening your profile before moving forward.

Step 2: Collecting Supporting Documents

We help you gather essential documentation, such as:

• Academic degrees, transcripts, and relevant certifications
• Evidence of work contributions (research publications, patents, conference presentations, awards)
• Letters of recommendation from respected experts or industry leaders validating your impact
• Proof that your work benefits the U.S., such as endorsements, policy impact, or economic benefits

Step 3: Preparing a Strong EB2 NIW Petition

Our experienced team drafts a persuasive petition, clearly outlining how your skills, achievements, and career trajectory meet the EB2 NIW requirements and serve the interests of the United States.

Step 4: Submitting the I-140 Petition

We file your Form I-140 (Immigrant Petition for Alien Worker) with the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS), officially starting your NIW application.

Step 5: Adjustment of Status or Consular Processing

If you are already in the U.S. on a valid visa, you may file for Adjustment of Status (Form I-485) after I-140 approval. If applying from Nepal, you will go through Consular Processing at the U.S. Embassy in Kathmandu.

Benefits of the EB2 NIW Green Card

• No employer sponsorship required: Apply as a self-petitioner, giving you greater independence and flexibility.
• Faster processing: Skip the lengthy labor certification process that slows down many other green card applicants.
• Pathway to U.S. permanent residency: Live, work, and thrive in the United States with your family.
