In the EB-2 NIW, you demonstrate that you have served relevant clients, such as Fortune 500 companies, by gathering documentation that verifiably supports that track record. What matters is concrete evidence of the relationship and the results, not simply mentioning the client’s name.

A strong evidence package typically includes:

  • Contracts, agreements, service orders, or letters confirming the work performed.
  • Reports, case studies, and materials showing the outcomes achieved.
  • Letters from clients or partners attesting to your impact.
  • Publications, mentions in specialized media, and presentations at industry events.

Organize everything clearly, with translations where needed, building a portfolio that links each relevant client to a concrete result of your work. This reinforces the narrative of merit and relevance required by the category.

Because each case is evaluated individually, consult the updated USCIS guidelines or speak with a specialist before assembling your petition package.
