An Economist Expert Opinion provides an independent, objective assessment of the potential economic impact of a petitioner’s proposed endeavor in support of an EB-2 NIW petition. Prepared by a qualified economist, the opinion evaluates the petitioner’s specific proposed activities and anticipated contributions to the U.S. economy, using the documentary evidence provided together with relevant economic data, industry research, and other objective sources.
 
The economist’s analysis may address the proposed endeavor’s potential to create or support U.S. jobs, generate economic activity, increase productivity, attract investment, expand business activity, contribute to industry growth, or produce other measurable economic benefits. Where appropriate, the economist may also examine the endeavor’s direct, indirect, and induced economic effects. The emphasis is placed on the specific economic impact of the petitioner’s proposed endeavor, rather than simply the general economic importance of the petitioner’s profession or field.
