Hi Everyone!
I’m excited to share that my EB-2 NIW (National Interest Waiver) petition has been approved! 🎉
This journey was challenging, to say the least, and it involved responding to a seventeen page Request for Evidence (RFE). I must admit, at first, I wasn’t even sure if we should take on this uphill battle.
After careful consideration with my attorney and paralegal, we decided to go ahead and respond to the RFE, taking the chance to fight for the approval. After all, you miss 100% of the shots you don’t take but it’s definitely a very challenging process overall.
Submitted the i-140 (eb2 niw with premium processing) in June, RFE in July, response to RFE in a the beginning of October and final approval just a couple of days ago.
I’m 41, 10.000hrs mostly in Airbus (a320/330/340), 4.000 PIC. Bachelors degree in Aviation from Sydney. Additionally, entrepreneurial background in two previous businesses and training experience as LTC.
Good luck to everyone pursuing this path!
