Is it worth including A/B test results or internal company metrics in an EB-2 NIW petition?

It can be worth it, as long as the numbers are tied to your contribution and help demonstrate impact. In an EB-2 NIW petition, A/B test results or internal metrics work well when they show an innovation, a process improvement, or a concrete gain that stems directly from your work.

The point is not to display data for its own sake, but to contextualize it. A standalone metric says little; that same metric, explained (what changed, why it matters, what your role was), becomes evidence of merit and relevance. These numbers represent your own results, so describe them with precision and in a verifiable way.

• Favor data you can substantiate and, when possible, document.
• Explain the context and the connection to the national interest of your work.
• Treat them as part of a broader body of evidence, not as the sole proof.

Be careful not to present information that could be read ambiguously. Since USCIS weighs the entire record, it is worth reviewing USCIS guidance and going over your evidence selection with a qualified specialist.
