We just had a National Interest Waiver (NIW) I-140 petition approved from USCIS Nebraska Service Center only two weeks after the petition was upgraded to premium processing. The applicant is a health policy expert with a Ph.D. degree, playing a critical role at a digital health company developing innovative applications to improve public health by changing behavior. Evidence of dissemination of research through academic papers, extensive documentation on the results of past projects the applicant led, including statistics on actual improvements on users’ health metrics, and evidence of interest from industry and academic actors helped support the national importance of this endeavor. Once the priority date becomes current, the client will move forward to adjust status to a green card holder. NIW petitions are complex and require lawyers who understand how to craft a most effective case strategy that highlights the unique strengths of each case.
