Is it advisable to include market expansion forecasts?

In the EB-1, the petition package brings together evidence that demonstrates the excellence and relevance of your work. Market expansion forecasts may be included, provided they are well-grounded and supported by solid data.

The value of these projections lies in the credibility of the sources. Market reports, independent studies, and expert analyses can add weight to your case, showing that your work is part of a context of growth and innovation.

That said, caution is warranted with overly optimistic projections or those lacking clear support. They can be read negatively and must be consistent with the rest of the petition package.

• Base forecasts on recognized and verifiable sources.
• Ensure consistency with the other evidence in the case.
• Avoid speculative or unsupported projections.

Since each case is evaluated individually, it is worth reviewing the guidance on the USCIS website and aligning your evidence strategy with a specialist.
