Personal Endeavor Plans (no financials)
Immigration attorneys use Personal Endeavor Plans mainly for professionals, or 'workbees' who do not wish to develop their proposed endeavors through their own entities. Instead, this document is better suited for petitioners who will develop the endeavor as independent contractors or employees.
Our Personal Endeavor Plans outline the individual's qualifications and expertise, detailing the proposed endeavor and its national importance without including financials. Our plans also help attorneys address the 'well-positioned' prong, covering the petitioner’s qualifications (skills, experience, and track record in related or similar efforts), support (financial and operational), and progress towards achieving the endeavor.

Have Questions?
-
Can Visa Business Plans help with EB-2 NIW recommendation letters and impact reports?
Yes. Visa Business Plans prepares EB-2 NIW impact analysis reports, business plans, and National Interest Waiver recommendation letters specifically structured to support the Dhanasar eligibility criteria.
-
Why does an EB-2 NIW petition often include a business plan or impact analysis?
A business plan or impact analysis report helps document the proposed endeavor's national importance, the applicant's ability to advance it, and the broader economic or societal benefit, which are central to satisfying all three prongs of the Dhanasar test.
-
Do I need a job offer for an EB-2 NIW?No. The NIW specifically waives the job offer and labor certification requirements, allowing qualified individuals to self-petition based on their own endeavor rather than a specific employer's need.
-
What is the Dhanasar standard for NIW eligibility?
Under the Matter of Dhanasar framework, an applicant must show that their proposed endeavor has substantial merit and national importance, that they are well positioned to advance it, and that it would benefit the U.S. to waive the standard job-offer and labor certification requirements.
