Brazilian researchers and professors will need to budget for higher costs when seeking 15-day adjudication. Since EB-1 is generally current for Brazil, the impact is limited to the increased cost of the optional expedited service.
The policy change means Brazilian applicants must provide more robust documentation to satisfy the enhanced vetting requirements. This is expected to slightly increase the time from filing to approval.
Brazil has seen a rise in EB-1 applications; however, they remain in the 'Rest of World' category for visa availability. The fee hike represents a standard inflationary adjustment for these applicants.
The partial stay on the DHS 2024 Fee Rule means that Brazilian applicants and their sponsors must verify the correct Asylum Program Fee and base filing fee for I-140 petitions. This administrative change affects the budgeting for high-skilled immigration from Brazil.
Brazilian applicants will see a more predictable timeline for receiving filing notices as USCIS moves away from manual check processing. This aligns with broader efforts to digitize the immigration workflow for high-skilled researchers.
