The Letters of Recommendation included in an EB-1 petition should not be used for a NIW petition. EB-1 Letters of Recommendation will not be effective for a NIW petition, since the EB-1 and NIW have different criteria. If you have filed a NIW petition, your priority date is the date that the USCIS receives your NIW petition.
