For EB-1B, should I send the CV and reference letters?

The EB-1B is a category intended for outstanding professors and researchers, and assembling a consistent dossier can make all the difference in the evaluation of your case.

Although there is no formal requirement to specifically submit the CV and reference letters, these documents are usually essential components to demonstrate your professional excellence and recognized impact in your field of work. Your detailed curriculum vitae, for example, is an important tool for immigration officers to understand your career path, academic achievements, and publications.

Reference letters, written by renowned specialists, complement this picture by attesting to your skills and contributions to the field of study, evidencing international recognition. Thus, even though they are not formally mandatory, sending these documents can significantly strengthen your petition.

It is always important to remember to strictly follow the United States immigration laws and regulations. It is advisable to seek guidance from specialized professionals or companies and to be cautious of marketing campaigns that promise guaranteed results. This approach helps to avoid possible scams and ensures that you are relying on correct and updated information, respecting the current legal process.
