Decision Trends
Top Industries
The policy change increases the cost of the optional expedited service for Pakistani applicants. The impact is primarily financial, as EB-1 visa numbers are generally available for Pakistan.
Applicants from Pakistan are frequently subject to additional security clearances; the new policy will likely institutionalize more frequent and deeper background checks. This may result in unpredictable delays for professors and researchers.
Pakistani nationals in the EB-1B category are currently under 'Rest of World' priority dates. The policy change only affects the cost of the initial filing and subsequent processing fees.
The court order on the DHS fee rule impacts the cost of sponsoring Pakistani talent in research roles. Applicants should coordinate with their legal counsel to confirm the current fee amounts required by USCIS.
The mandatory electronic payment system ensures that Pakistani researchers have their petitions receipted without the delays inherent in physical check processing. This is a universal update affecting all Pakistani EB-1B filings.
