Philadelphia National Interest Waiver Attorneys
Individuals who can demonstrate their admission to the United States is in the best interests of the country are eligible for a National Interest Waiver (NIW). In order to qualify, individuals must establish the national impact of their work or activity, how the national interest will be enhanced as a result, as well as the adverse effects should they be denied entry or required to provide a labor certification. The Law Offices of Tahir Mella advises and represents clients seeking a NIW, preparing documentation while working with immigration and State Department officials on behalf of our clients. Candidates who qualify for a NIW can waive work requirements associated with obtaining a green card, making it important to provide all required information up front in order to avoid delays and complications.
To discuss the process involved in obtaining a NIW, contact immigration lawyers at the Law Offices of Tahir Mella today. Located in Philadelphia, our office represents clients throughout Pennsylvania and New Jersey, including York, Reading, Doylestown, Norristown, Media, Camden, Burlington, Salem, and Cherry Hill.
Filing for a NIW
An individual or an employer can file for an NIW. Since an applicant does not need a job or proof of employment under the terms of an NIW, individuals can file on behalf of themselves.
