I wanted to chime in because I actually went through the EB-1 route a few years back. It was a bit of a process, but I managed to get my green card without needing a US employer. It’s a fantastic option if you have some solid achievements or advanced degrees. I know it’s not super well-known, especially in the Nigerian community, but it’s definitely worth exploring.

Please I need clarity. I am currently doing a DIY eb2 niw application from Nigeria. Important questions below:

1. What are the fees? I know about the general fee of $715 however is it an additional $300 or $600?

2. Applying from Nigeria, what is the payment method and how do you send this payment?

3. On the I 140 application, what do you fill out on questions 4,5,6,7 because I saw in a recent post, you are supposed to fill out NO to
question 5 and YES to question 6. So what do you fill out for question 4 and 7 as they are all related to 5 and 6.

Please answers to the above questions will be greatly appreciated.

Thank you in advance!

Since April 1, the $300 has become part of the EB2 NIW fees. Apparently, petitioners that are not employers are also considered to be under those who employ 0-25.

So you have to select NO to question 5 (the non profit question) and YES to question 6 (the question about being an employer that employs 0-25)

Until you do this, and add the $300 as a seperate fee, they'll keep returning the petition.

As wild as it sounds, it's what it is.

Hello, I just saw this comment. Can you please respond to my question above? It will help. Thank you!

1. $300
2. You need to connect with someone who resides in the US to assist you.
3. I cannot say because I did not fill mine myself. My attorney did and I did not bother to go through the form. Nevertheless, I know that you are considered a small employer, hence, the main reason you will need to pay $300 and not $600.
