My country has a dual citizenship agreement with the USA, does that help?

Dual citizenship agreements do not impact the criteria for the EB-2 NIW visa, which focuses on professional qualifications and contributions to the USA, always respecting current legislation.

The EB-2 NIW is an immigration visa category intended for professionals with an advanced degree or exceptional abilities, who can demonstrate a proposal that significantly benefits the United States.

Although your country may have a dual citizenship agreement with the USA, these agreements only address citizenship and do not influence the strict criteria of this category.

The evaluation focuses on academic qualifications or professional experience and the relevance of the project to be developed in the country. Therefore, such agreements do not alter the requirements established by the USCIS.

It is essential to follow current legislation and seek reliable guidance, avoiding unfounded promises or deceptive practices. Each case is unique and depends on legal compliance to ensure immigration security.
