I 140 at TSC

[niwea]

Dear friends:

I am planning to apply for I 140-EB2-NIW at Texas Service Center. To get all the letters/documents ready, it took me almost over a year. Some of the reference letter writers are moved to different addresses and no longer working for their original job.

Does INS will call or write to my references? Can I give an old reference letter?

Does any one have any experience that INS contacts the letter writers?

I think some of the references may not even remember me now.

Please help. Thanks.

This is also my question.

Do we need to provide UP-TO-DATE reference letters from ALL employers you worked for before?


Thanks.

The reference letters must answer the key aspects of the NIW, namely the standard questions precedent from the NYS DOT appeal. I personally doubt that standard, older refererences can answer the specifics of the NYS DOT case.

Study up on the questions from the NYS DOT case and then ask for letters that deal with the issues raised.

Good luck...but remember the more you practice the luckier you get.
