My Personal Self-Petition Green Card Story
“I was in a similar situation in 2005, a few years before the start of this website.”
In 2005, after completing my PhD and starting a postdoc at a national lab, I wanted to apply for a green card. A lawyer’s initial evaluation dismissed my case for self-petition, suggesting I get employer sponsorship instead. But with a temporary postdoc position, that wasn’t an option. I realized that to achieve my goal, I’d need to explore other paths.
Five months later, a visa retrogression announcement forced me to act quickly if I wanted to self-petition for a green card. Determined, I spent days researching, gathering materials, and preparing my application. Without a lawyer, I navigated the process on my own—and succeeded! Soon after, I was approved for the EB2-NIW, and I began sharing my journey with others facing similar challenges.
Empowering Others to Self-Petition for a Green Card
Since then, I have helped many friends and colleagues successfully self-petition their green cards. Through our DIY packet and step-by-step guidance, this website provides the tools and information needed to take control of your application process.
