US EB-2 NATIONAL INTEREST WAIVER
U.S EB-2 NIW
The EB-2 National Interest Waiver (NIW) program is a residency program for applicants with exceptional abilities who propose benefits to the U.S. economy, allowing them to apply for U.S. permanent residency without the need for a Labor Certification.
Through an investment of 250,000 USD, investors and their families will have the opportunity to start a business, live, and study freely in the world’s leading country. Importantly, this is a program to quickly obtain U.S. Permanent Residency, only from 12 to 16 months.

frequently asked questions
01The US EB-2 Immigration Program: Key Categories
The US EB-2 Immigration Program has three main categories:
- EB-2A: Designed for candidates with advanced degrees.
- EB-2B: Intended for candidates who demonstrate high expertise in their specialized field.
- EB-2C: Reserved for candidates eligible for a National Interest Waiver (NIW) (This is the Entrepreneurial category within the EB-2 US immigration program).
02Is an invitation letter required for this program?
An employment invitation letter is only required for EB-2A and EB-2B. The Entrepreneurial (NIW) category is exempt from this requirement.
03What are the primary eligibility criteria for the EB-2 program?
To participate in the EB-2 US immigration program, the project must meet the following conditions:
- The project must achieve significant accomplishments with national impact.
- The candidate must have the capability to execute the project.
- The project should bring substantial benefits to the United States.
04Comparing the EB-5 and EB-2 US Immigration Programs
- The EB-2 program is suitable for a select group of individuals who meet specific criteria and seek an EB-2 visa to address critical labor shortages in certain specialized fields. It is not the program for most investors who primarily focus on US immigration for their families.
- The EB-5 program is a straightforward and legitimate path to obtaining a US green card directly. It is designed for the majority, with a clear and safe process (without unnecessary steps or detours). EB-5 provides a secure option for family immigration plans and offers the potential for investment capital recovery.
05So, who is the EB-2 program suitable for?
The EB-2 program is for foreign nationals seeking long-term employment opportunities in the US. The US government closely manages this program to ensure it does not adversely affect the job prospects and interests of domestic workers (US citizens and permanent residents), adding pressure to EB-2 visa applications.
