I am new to this thread but I started reading from the beginning. I major in Anti Money Laundering Compliance in the Banking industry. Can someone assist with names of Attorneys who are experienced in this feiId?

Helpout12345:
I cannot over emphasize the importance of a familiar attorney in this process.

For example, the attorney here https://www.wegreened.com/ has a very high success rate in this process but when you look closely on their reviews on their website and on avvo, you will notice majority of their successful clients are researchers and academic professionals. This attorney struggles on applicants from industries like banking, oil and gas, etc, who are not PhD holders, researchers etc.

I can also show you another attorney that is bad for researchers and good for industry professionals.

Hi
Did anybody receive IL in May 2023 for EB2 NIW

It is quite frustrating that it is taking quite long to receive IL in Lagos. People in London embassy that are current receives IL within 70 days of DQ.

Seunn11:
Good day everyone.

I sent out my I140 with NIW (EB2 Visa) application via DHL in December.
Till now, I have not received a response.
I read somewhere that there should be a receipt number. I did not receive any receipt number.
Could you kind people put me through on how this works.

Thank you.

Hello I am new to this...
Did you apply by yourself ?

L-1 category of visa are for intracompany transfers of managers and specialist between their home country and the States. Ordinary they'll be handled by the company and not individuals.

Hi Everyone, I’m about to schedule my visa appointment for an L-1 visa, I have all my documents ready. I can’t seem to find anyone who has applied for a similar visa and any form of suggestions for the visa interview will be very much appreciated. Thank you.

Yes I am aware of that and my company has done their part and filled all the required documents. However I still have to attend a visa interview and would like to know the likely questions

From an EB1 that I know who interviewed last year. It was all formalities and chit chat....then documents verification.
Basically it was easy.
Have you received IL? Best wishes in your interview.

probably short staffed and/ or not getting replacement priority from DOS like other post around the globe.!. .

Good day guys, thank you all for all you are doing on this forum/ thread.
My spouse applied in Dec and recently got approval for EB2 niw.
He has received invoices for payments for the next step from NVC, and we are gathering our civil documents.
Please I have the following questions:
1. Is proof of sufficient fund described earlier on this thread required at this nvc stage or at the embassy stage? This is because we need time to add more to our savings
2. Does size of dependents affect one's chances during interviews at embassy ? This info will help us decide whether to file for 2 (for now) or 4 all of our kids.

Hoping for your kind responses to my questions.
God bless you all.



Thank you all for your prompt response

Japa for sure

Well said.

Nothing for you here.

This is where you should be

Hello,

Congrats on your approval.
1. You do not need proof of funds for NIW.
What you need for the next stage is $345 for each of your family member.

2. I do not think size of family affects your application, the age of your children however does. ( children above 21 won’t be eligible ). It is advisable you file for all your family now, you wouldn’t want to go through another process of filing for an additional family member.

Pls send a message

I also DQ on Dec 20, 2022; my priority date is current. No IL yet. Please if you are on EB2 and received IL this year, kindly drop a message. I'm just trying to keep track of the processing time. Good luck everyone!

I really will like to see if anyone have received IL this year.

Hope the election is not reason for this.

I have the option of putting in for EB 2 NIW as a entrepreneur or as a researcher/project coordinator. I have ND, HND and PGE qualifications from Nigeria and resident in Nigeria

Please, I will like ask the following questions:
1. is WES evaluation a must for my application?

I am interested in Eb 2niw. I fit to apply as an entrepreneur, business owner or program coordinator. I have ND, HND,and PGD from Nigeria educational institutions and resident in Nigeria.

I would like to ask the following:
1. Is WES evaluation compulsory as part of my application exhibit?
2. Which role (entrepreneur or programs coordinator) will give my application a better chances?

Thank you very much for your response.

EB3 may likely give you a better chance
You may want to explore this instead of EB2
