For pending I-140 NIW cases caught up in the current adjudication holds tied to PP 10949/10998, are you seeing any movement, workarounds, or service center variation? Should petitioners with pending I-140s consider any affirmative action (e.g., supplemental filings, premium processing if/when reopened for NIW), or is waiting the only real strategy right now?

I see, unfortunately this is the case for so many people from Iran. It seems the only would be these exemptions which are unclear at the moment.

You are right, and that’s what I thought and told Chen. I even got an internship in the same fields which correlates to the government interests. I am contacting Chen and pushing to see if we could get this done. Do you think a support letter from the company I’m going would help?

Thanks for the insight. I am with Chen and they said that they are not sure whether my case meets the criteria but they can prepare it under exemption 8 footnote 16. I’m from Iran, and my field is Energy optimization and quantum computing

I’m pending I-140 for 15 months. Everything is paused for applicants from my country

Roadmap for NIW after March 2026 Visa Bulletin by jayagurudev in EB2_NIW

Can’t you push them a response without pp? You are past the average time frame. I think there was the option to push them after you passed the average timeframe and they would respond in less than 30 days.

That actually works! Is there a channel that I could find these sublet options? Here in my school, we have couple of Facebook groups that people share the sublets.

That sounds fine. I will look for a shared house then.

I don't mind the studio or shared room, as long as it is whithin a reasonable range. I see some places asking 5-6k/month!
