@Qian 

Dear Qian,

First of all thank you so much for this post, its truly so helpful I think an experienced immigration attorney has less knowledge than yourself, hats off!

I am trying to do this for my wife and i just had a few questions if you dont mind based on your experience, I am in similar boat as you only I am working for my own company with operations in US and Europe and we are residing in Europe currently. The company falls under the category for foreign trade/US clause my question is the following:

1. Based on your experience is it ok if smaller companies arequalified, considering i am the COO company does about a $1 million in sales?

2. Can you share redacted samples that you have used or show me any for documents, cover letters and such?

Thank you again so much 


Thank you Afrim for your kind words. It’s really pretty straightforward as almost everything I needed wason USCIS’s website and this forum.

Re your questions,

>1, I don’t think the scale of the business matters really, as my husband’s home office is not a nation wide well-known firm of any sort, and the revenue, numbers of employees etc were not asked. We did provide the info, just to show the legitimacy.

It’s on us to convince the officers that you are contributing to the economy/trade in the USA. That’s why I think the cover letter and supporting documents are extremely important.

>2, My cover letter may not be relevant to your case as the nature of businesses possibly is not the same. What I can say is that, give a very detailed description of your business, especially on “HOW” your company is benefiting the USA. I.e. you provide jobs in the USA?(how many) , You generate revenue and provide opportunities for shareholders in other industries in the US? You contribute in US taxes? (For how long and how much), etc.

As well as your future plans, including the outlook of your business, and how much longer you might need to stay abroad etc.

Again, my experience has made me believe that the agencies are quite reasonable and fair, if your case satisfies the requirements by laws, you will be approved. So provide as much evidence as you can, and all the best!

Please do report back help other together. Thanks!

Thank you so much for this. Did you select the DC office for the interview or did you just go by the one in your home state, as I read conflicting info that some offices do not have much info for this program? Also how long did it take from start to finish and were the fingerprints taken at a US Embassy abroad?
