On EB-2 NIW for pilots

Here’s a post from last year by immigration lawyer Amber Davis on EB-2 NIW for pilots:

I got my first pilot NIW approved!

The case was from a while back and the pilot had decided to go with me instead of another lawyer based on a personal recommendation from one of my prior clients.

The case was approved in three months without premium processing and also without a ton of documentation.

The whole process was smooth.

Of course, it helped that my client was extremely qualified. She had over ten years of industry experience, top notch credentials, and also evidence to show that she had made contributions to the field. She was a legit professional in every way.

Not saying that every pilot who applies for NIW will qualify, just like not every nurse or engineer who applies for an NIW will qualify, but in recent years, aviation professionals have been getting approved for NIWs.

The trend started a couple years ago when a few attorneys stepped forward to say that their clients had gotten approved. Ever since then, pilots have been applying and getting approved!
