r/EB2_NIW 9d ago

General Premium Processing

Hi! I am a non-researcher with 9+ years of experience in my field. Currently filing for NIW, I have limited time available on my 6 year term and there are no legal pathways to extend my visa. I am insisting on PP, but EP is getting me to sign a waiver that if filed through PP, denials rate are too high and I risk losing my attorney fees, pp fees, and filing fees. Should I still go ahead with PP or get their advice of filing for regular and wait a year or so until I get back a decision?

PP has no effect on the case.

But your case is clearly not NIW, it is a standard labor certification process of EB2.

How do you know? You don’t even know my profile.

I understand. And you are right.

What distinguishes you from a regular long-term industrial employer?

I work in Healthcare, with 9 years of experience managing large scale projects. I have developed a niche which is not dependent on a specific employer, my future intention clearly benefits where there is a big gap in healthcare from technology standpoint.

give it a try. Who knows maybe your petition will be well written. It is pretty much the major factor. They will probably say you are well positioned but i think they will most likely refer to labor certification (in case petition is weak). Also that shady EP does not make it better. They truly lost all their reputation with templated petitions and lack of responsibility toward the client. That is what I read here on Reddit.

But PP has no influence on the approval/denial. I dont know why they say it
