Do you get the impression this is a cause for concern for qualified applicants? Rephrased: what sort of applications are now getting denied/RFE'd that would have been fine say a couple years ago?
replyAnecdotes would suggest that a lot of people were able to get these visas because there was some fairly loose interpretation of the criteria.
I'm particularly interested in EB1A.
EB1As are extremely difficult to get right now. This is particularly true for non-scientific/research/academic employees who are not very highly compensated.
replySmall clarification on wording here (non-). Do you mean academics/researchers are finding it challenging?
replyFor context, am postdoc and I was told by a local immigration firm, within the last year, that I had a good profile for EB1A.
Sorry for the poor wording. It's tougher for those who are not in academia or research.
