@OscarsGreenCard, for EB2-NIW, can't see why you would have to pay Asylum fee unless you was an employer of some kind?

[@OscarsGreenCard]

@@andrewsmith5276 because that's why USCIS says, and unfortunately if you don't do it, they will reject your package

[@pdrcirillo]

Great Oscar!! What a good news for my Brazilian colleagues to have access to your content also in Portuguese😊.

[@OscarsGreenCard]

Thanks!! A translation for the EB2 NIW course is also underway

If i am in the USA and studied Masters and Phd here in USA and already has a job as a professor, do i need to show my endeavors?

[@arnubiovalenciajimenez6952]

Hi Oscar, Excellent video. The total cost of the process, regardless of whether it is done via AOS or consular, is a factor to consider when deciding to apply. I do not doubt that many have sufficient academic and professional merits to obtain EB2-NIW approval, but not all have the financial resources required to carry it out.

[@OscarsGreenCard]

very true! it's very important to know what it takes financially!

[@heindadell490]

I took a lawyer and it was the best decision for my situation. He helped me understand the documents and he helped me through the process. At the moment I´m waiting for my Visa Interview (EB2 NIW)

[@PatiencePeter1]

How much did it cost you to take a lawyer please 🙏

[@hariskhan83]

Can you please share the name of the lawyer as I need to have a review of my application.

[@heindadell490]

Congrats! Thanks for your opinion

[@MaedehRabiei]

Hello Oscar very helpful video,thanks for that. The self petitioner that are not in usa for niw have to pay $600 asylum fee?? Please explain

[@OscarsGreenCard]

no, $300 as explained in the video

[@MaedehRabiei]

@OscarsGreenCard Thank you Oscar

[@sull5307]

so basically around 1k is just for application, rest is valid if you get accepted right?

[@leoallancorpus1830]

Thank you, Oscar, for the update. I have a question about vaccines, specifically the COVID-19 vaccine. Due to a medical condition, I prefer not to receive the COVID-19 vaccine. What options are available to me to avoid getting the COVID-19 vaccine and still pursue my application?

[@OscarsGreenCard]

You can discuss it with the doctor

[@oanhluu1791]

Can I pay fee by debit card instead of credit card?

[@golamzilani6036]

Informative 🎉 thanks once again👍

Thanks!!

[@odukwenkechi1870]

Thanks Oscar for the fee update. If you get an RFE, do you pay any fee when sending your reply?

[@OscarsGreenCard]

Nope, it's free at that point

[@Wiseman1234op]

Hey Oscar, do you think eb2 niw will get impacted due to elections?

[@OscarsGreenCard]

in some ways it could, mostly related to change in national priorities, not on removing the program itself. I have a couple of videos about that topic and will probably touch on that again in the coming weeks

[@nb5]

Hi Oscar thanks for the video Is it possible to submit a petition electronically online?

[@OscarsGreenCard]

No

[@preciousogor7482]

Hi Oscar, I am filing EB2 NIW and I had a money order $1440 and $715 and the $300 for the asylum fee but they keep returning my application saying I need to pay the correct fees, please help me what I'm I missing? Initially, I didn't add the $300 asylum fee and they returned it and I added $300 and re sent the application back and they sent it back for incorrect fees? Please, what I'm I missing please. Thank you for your help

[@OscarsGreenCard]

You're probably filling out the form wrong . Also not sure what the $1440 is for. We explain all of this in the course

[@preciousogor7482]

So when they return it, they give the reason why and the reason they said was incorrect fees. The $1440 is for the form I-485.

[@ugonmaubah2955]

Thank you for this video. Just a quick quetion, can peope who register for your course get access to external recommenders?

[@OscarsGreenCard]

Yes, through our partner and of course, it's not included in the course fee

[@alikazemian511]

Hi, thank you for the information. it is really great. I have a question. I am living outside of USA, and I don't know how can I make the payments. it is written that paying with a card is possible if it is issued by an American bank. could you please let me know more option that are available for person living outside of the USA. thank you in advance.

[@OscarsGreenCard]

Hi, some cards seem to work, but the best way is to know someone in the USA and ask them for a money order from USPS. I cover this topic and more in our online course payhip.com/b/gfuRU

[@lineadeportiva1]

Gracias por la info, entonces en la pregunta 6 del i 140, donde dice si tenemos empleando 25 personas o menos, hay que ponerle que si. Aprecio mucho tu atencion.

[@OscarsGreenCard]

Si. Todo esto lo explicamos en el curso payhip.com/b/gfuRU

[@mcnstein646]

Hello Oscar, thanks for the video. Is it workable to write one money order that covers the total payment for I-140 fee and Asylum Program Fee? Or just write two different money orders for both fees?

[@OscarsGreenCard]

Two, like I say in the video

[@docrhodadelgado]

How much is the required capital in our business plan to present in the EB2 NIW Petition if we want to start a business in the US?

[@OscarsGreenCard]

there's no requirement, but showing some capital can for sure help. it depends on the business...

[@ErikaSevereynVarela]

En el proceso consular la tarifa del departamento de estado y la de uscis se pagan al mismo tiempo. O se paga primero la tarifa del departamento de estado y luego piden la de uscis.

[@OscarsGreenCard]

Primero la de Estado y luego la de USCIS

[@ErikaSevereynVarela]

[@ousmanbajinka2896]

Applying for I-140; I will need to pay 715$ for normal service. If I opted for premium, will it cover the normal fee or I will still pay for I-140 and also pay for 2500$ premium services?

No, it's not included. Please watch this video

[@zubairbs]

@oscar hi oscar, just to be clear i have a money order of I-140 is 715usd so for asylum i will make another money order for that ? or It should be one ?

If I'm applying first for EB2-NIW and few months later for EB1-A, can I use the same medical exam for both?

[@OscarsGreenCard]

You can see if the doctor is open to sign two forms, because you would need a duplicate . It's a matter of their willingness to do that for the same price or not

[@lismarpernia6254]

Hola Oscar! Excelente información! Tengo una pregunta en el curso explicas quién puede aplicar dependiendo del estatus dentro de USA ejemplo TPS, Asilo pendiente, B2, si es así deben salir al momento de ajustar?

Can one who is approved do the consular processing later even if his priority date is current? I mean, if my priority date is current, but i don't have the finances to do it, can it be done later because of the financial cost? Is there any implication if someone doesn't do it immediately?

even after the PD is current it will take a few months for the appointment to be provided. More or less time depending on location

No, you can't submit now. Your application will get rejected and you'll need to submit it again

Oscar, please please clarify. Does it mean that they will give me an RFE to submit the check for asylum program fees?? Otherwise I was planning to write a cover letter with the check quoting my A number and receipt number to the USCIS address where I sent it

Hi Oscar, I’m interested in purchasing your course. Could you let me know if there are any discount coupons available? Additionally, I have a question regarding my application. I currently reside in Denmark with a temporary residence card, but my country of origin is Pakistan. Should I apply through Denmark or Pakistan? Also, will I be treated as an applicant from Denmark or Pakistan and will be placed in the queue for which country’s applicants?

[@OscarsGreenCard]

No discounts unless you are an existing customer hoping to upgrade to the course You are always treated based on your country of birth for visa bulletin but for consular processing you can use a consulate in a place of residence. we explain all of that in the course in detail payhip.com/b/gfuRU
