Large companies invited me for consulting. Does it count?

The EB-2 NIW (National Interest Waiver) visa is an option for professionals with advanced degrees or exceptional abilities who wish to contribute significantly to the United States without the need for a tied job offer. In this context, invitations from large companies for consulting can, in some cases, strengthen your professional profile and demonstrate the relevance of your contributions in your field of expertise.

However, it is important to carefully analyze whether the consulting proposal fits the EB-2 NIW criteria and whether it truly adds value to your file. It is essential to consider that, although an invitation from a renowned company is a positive point, success in a visa petition depends on a set of evidence proving your qualifications and the relevance of your work to the United States.

Thus, the consulting invitation should be evaluated not only as a punctual work opportunity but as part of a consistent history that shows your ability to positively impact your field of expertise. Remember that the immigration process follows strict rules and irregularities can harm your situation.

Therefore, it is crucial that all documentation is prepared carefully and that you consult reliable sources or immigration specialists to verify if all requirements are being met. Avoid acting based on promises of guaranteed results or doubtful marketing campaigns, which may lead to scams or misunderstandings about immigration law.

In summary, consulting invitations from large companies can indeed be a positive element for your application, provided they are carefully and integrally analyzed in relation to your professional profile. Make sure that your entire trajectory and the opportunities presented are aligned with the EB-2 NIW visa requirements and objectives, always respecting United States immigration laws.
