Austin National Interest Waiver Attorney

Advocating for Your Specialized Skills and Contributions

With a national interest waiver, a foreign national can request that the Labor Certification requirement be waived because it is in the interest of the United States. National interest waivers are generally granted to individuals with exceptional ability and whose employment in the United States would greatly benefit the country.

Unlike other employment-based green cards, individuals can self-petition for a national interest waiver without first obtaining sponsorship from an employer. They can also file their labor certification directly with USCIS along with their Form I-140 (Petition for Alien Worker).
