​Two Common Reasons and Solutions for Educational RFEs for EB2 Petitions

Jobs in STEM industries in the United States are growing faster than the US-born workforce can address alone. For this reason, employers in these industries are hiring more and more highly skilled workers from abroad who fit the EB2 Visa classification
because they hold advanced degrees beyond of US bachelor’s degree or it’s equivalent. Only 40,040 EB2 Visas are available annually and they are in high demand because holding this Visa status allows foreign nationals to work towards a Green Card. EB2
classification is also preferable to EB3 classification for candidates seeking Green Cards because the wait time for having their visas reviewed is years faster for EB2 than EB3. USCIS has had to be very careful in who they select for EB2 Visa status
because there are far more petitions submitted than spaces to fill, and because many employees opt to try to fit into an EB2 classification when really their credentials qualify them for EB3 status. For this reason, EB2 Visa petitions are often met with
RFEs.
