EB2-NIW Green Card Services
Your Direct Path to U.S. Permanent Residency Without Sponsorship
At Phoenix Immigration Consulting Services, we help accomplished professionals transform their expertise into a lasting future in the United States—without needing a job offer or employer sponsorship. The EB2-NIW (Employment-Based Second Preference – National Interest Waiver) provides a unique opportunity for individuals whose work serves the interests of the United States to obtain a Green Card through self-petition.
Unlike traditional employment-based immigration, the EB2-NIW bypasses labor certification and employer sponsorship. This makes it especially valuable for entrepreneurs, researchers, healthcare professionals, engineers, educators, and experts in fields of national importance who want the freedom to pursue their vision in the United States.
Understanding the EB2-NIW Visa Category
The EB2-NIW is a subcategory of the EB2 Green Card, generally reserved for professionals with an advanced degree or exceptional ability. What sets the National Interest Waiver apart is that applicants may petition independently if they can prove that their work substantially benefits the nation.
As a start, one must meet the EB2 minimum qualifications which can include having a U.S. master’s degree or higher or a bachelor’s degree with five years of progressive work experience, or showing exceptional ability in the sciences, arts, or business. After confirming the minimum qualifications, you must meet the three conditions in the Matter of Dhanasar ruling: your proposed endeavor must have substantial merit and national importance, you must be well-positioned to advance the endeavor, and it must be in the U.S. national interest to waive the standard job offer and labor certification requirements.
Is EB2-NIW Right for You?
The EB2-NIW is championed for individuals whose work leads to fulfilling pressing U.S. requirements and adds tremendous value in the healthcare industry, technology and renewable energy, public policy, and education. If you are conducting pioneering research, establishing transformative startups, or executing projects that enhance U.S. infrastructure and well-being, you can avail this visa as a pathway to permanent residency.
Since sponsorship is not required, this is another flexible option. Once you are in the U.S., you can work with any company or even start your own business. You can also apply through consular processing from outside the country or, if you are already in the U.S., you can adjust your status.
How Phoenix Immigration Builds Your Case
We initiate the process by assessing your academic credentials, professional experiences, and your objectives regarding the U.S, and then develop a bespoke petition strategy that defines your strengths and the importance of your work to the nation.
We draft compelling personal statements, obtain reference letters, and present your work in a manner that meets the USCIS requirements. In the event of a USCIS Request for Evidence, we respond with precision and clear reasoning to keep your petition moving forward. Cookie cutter templates do not do justice to your unique strengths.

Timeline and Expectations
The petition process for the EB2-NIW petition takes three to six weeks based on your credentials and the documentation on hand. Your case could take 8-15 months for the USCIS adjudication process based on the service level, which may be further reduced with premium processing.
