Hi Rajiv,

I work as a clinical and research dietitian at a large urban acadeic hospital in Boston. Its a private non for profit, they sponsored my H1-B(valid upto 2013), but stated they wouldnt sponsor my GC. I was told that since Im involved in clinical research I can apply for a GC through NIW.
If so: (a)can I self sponsor myself? (b) how can I ascertain whether I qualify for the NIW?

Thanks

Thanks It is not easy. Evaluate your evidence objectively. There is also a NIW for physicians with state or federal sponsorship in an under-served area.
