*Letters
of Recommendation: The candidate must provide Letters of Recommendation or letters
of support from experts within the candidate's field of specialization such as
professors, researchers, etc.. These Letters of
Recommendation should demonstrate that: - The
alien seeks employment in an area of substantial intrinsic merit;
- The candidate possesses unique knowledge,
abilities, or experience which sets him/her apart from his/her
professional peers;
- The candidate
will utilize his/her unique talents in an activity significantly benefiting the
field of specialization;
- The proposed benefit
will be national in scope; and
- National
interest would be adversely affected if a Labor Certification were required
for the candidate.
Preparation and drafting
of such letters can be a complex process. Candidates should seek the assistance
of an experienced immigration attorney who can help you prepare the recommendation
letters. Z&A is experienced in handling NIW petitions.
