NIW with phd in pure math

Published Oct 18,2019 By Heonmi Kim

I consider pursuing a green card with my Ph.D. in Mathematics through self-petition.
However, I have little doubt about how much possibility to succeed in getting a green card through my degree as my major does not belong to any categories as indicated below.

“Individuals of extraordinary ability in the sciences, arts, education, business, or athletics (E11)

Please advise.

Thanks!

Hi,

I am not at all an expert in immigration (I am just going through the process myself too), but I am sure that Mathematics falls under the “Science” category, without a doubt. I don’t see any reason why it would be restricted to applied sciences. Good luck in preparing your application if you decide so!

Kind regards,

Hi Heonmi,

Yes, Mathematics belongs to sciences in this context.
