USCIS has reported a significant decline in approval rates for EB-2 National Interest Waiver (NIW) and EB-1A visa categories. The approval rate for EB-2 NIW has plummeted from 95.7% to 54%, while EB-1A approvals are also experiencing a downward trend. This shift comes amidst a surge in visa filings, suggesting that the changes may not solely be due to stricter standards but also influenced by submission gaps rather than case quality.
Key Details:
- EB-2 NIW approval rate: decreased from 95.7% to 54%
- EB-1A approval rates are also declining
- Increase in overall visa filings reported
- Submission gaps may affect outcomes, not just case quality
The decline in approval rates could significantly impact prospective immigrants seeking to secure their visas through these categories. Need help with your immigration case? Visit QuickFiling.us for professional immigration services.
