Yes, it can be a strong strategy. In the EB-2 NIW, support from American clients helps show that your product or service has real traction and relevance in the United States, which reinforces the national interest argument. What carries weight is the quality of the evidence, not the mere mention of support.
For that support to work in your favor, it must be authentic and well documented. Testimonials, client letters, contracts, and formal recognitions can serve as supporting evidence when you connect them to your case, showing how the product generates concrete economic, technological, or social benefits.
- Prioritize verifiable endorsements over generic praise.
- Link each piece of evidence to the impact you want to demonstrate.
- Avoid exaggeration or any claim you cannot substantiate.
Each petition is evaluated individually by the competent authority, so it is worth organizing your evidence consistently and, if possible, reviewing your case narrative with a specialist before filing.
