Hi, friends:
I am a new comer.
As far as qualification is concerned, does anyone know what is the difference between emploer-sponsored NIW and self-sponsored NIW ? I appreciated any input.

Hi,
there is a big time difference if you are a physician - then either NIW can be filed based on (there are 2 subcategories):
1) employment contract in underserved area
OR
2) based on exceptional ability (no employment contract needed)
supporting documents to be submitted are entirely different. For #1 many even file it without any rec letters and get approved.

I am glad to receive all these replies.
It seems to be a little clearer to me now.
I am doing research.
Even my employer's projects are of substantial national interest and I am playing a pivotal role in the same projects, sponsoring by my employer does give me any advantage. I need to fulfill all requirements as in self-sponsored NIW
Am I correct?

Does any friend have experience in obtaining employer-sponsored NIW approved without fulfilling all qualifications.
If you do, let us share it.
Thanks
