Determining National Importance: Visa Business Plans' Key Solution for NIW Visa Applicants

When embarking on the path to securing a National Interest Waiver (NIW) visa, understanding if a proposed endeavor holds national importance can be a pivotal factor in an application's success.

Many applicants, along with their attorneys, face uncertainty regarding the significance of their line of business to the United States, as outlined in Dhanasar's prongs. At Visa Business Plans, we've devised a valuable solution for both attorneys and their clients, offering a way to assess the national importance of a proposed endeavor before proceeding with the NIW application process.

The Challenge of Determining National Importance

One of the key hurdles in the NIW visa application process is establishing the national importance of the proposed endeavor.

Does it align with the government's priorities?
