Giving Back & Legacy

The U.S. values Civic Engagement. This means being a leader in your local community or professional organization.

• Don't just attend events, help run them. Volunteer to be on the board of a local non-profit or lead a Special Interest Group in your industry association (like a Women in Tech or International Professionals group).
• Community leadership is a major green flag for Green Card applications (like the EB-1 or EB-2 NIW), as it proves you are a person of Exceptional Ability who serves the U.S. national interest.
