Helping high-impact people pursue permanent residence through the EB-2 National Interest Waiver (NIW)

The Process

What Is the EB-2 National Interest Waiver?

The EB-2 Category

For individuals with an advanced degree or exceptional ability in their field. This employment-based green card category is designed for professionals whose work rises above the ordinary.

The National Interest Waiver

The NIW allows qualified individuals to bypass the standard labor certification requirement. If your work benefits the United States, you may self-petition — no employer sponsor needed.

Who Qualifies?

Researchers, scientists, engineers, physicians, and entrepreneurs with a track record of impact. The key is demonstrating that your work has substantial merit and national importance under Matter of Dhanasar.

2026 Member — American Immigration Lawyers AssociationNick Jones, Immigration Attorney

Nick Jones is an attorney focused exclusively on the EB-2 National Interest Waiver for people across the United States and beyond.

Nick's practice is built on a methodical, evidence-driven approach to NIW petitions. He analyzes each client's record against the three-prong framework established in Matter of Dhanasar and constructs a tailored legal argument designed to withstand USCIS scrutiny. His clients work across fields including artificial intelligence, biotechnology, clean energy, academic research, and public health.

The practice is intentionally small. Nick takes on a limited number of cases each year so that every client receives direct attorney attention — from the initial case evaluation through filing and any Requests for Evidence.
