Hey gurus,

I have been never been on JI. Have been on H1B stuck at labor certification since 2001. Meanwhile I have completed 5 yrs in underserved area and decided to try my luck with NIW. Yesterday I got RFE for my I140:

Please provide evidence that a dtermination has been made by either the HHS, VA or any other federal agency that has knowledge of the beneficiary's qualifications, that the beneficary's work in the area, areas or facility is in the public interest.

What does this mean? What am I supposed to submit??
 
i believe you need a letter from State dept of health or from VA that your work in underserved area is in public interest, depending on where you are working. That is one of the very basic requirements of NIW. Check out J1 victims info on NIW.
