What is the NIW standard under current U.S. immigration statutes?
The 1990 law provides that “Advanced Degree Professionals”, or persons of “Exceptional Ability”, whose work would substantially benefit the national interests of the U.S. would be exempted from the labor certification requirement, if this would be in the “national interest” of the U.S. What constitutes ‘national interest’, however, is not defined under the Statute.
