EB-2 Visa Attorney in Dallas
Put 2 Decades of Experience in Your Corner
Individuals who can offer the United States their special skills, experience, and knowledge through a higher education, or unique abilities that would benefit the nation’s well-being may be able to enter the country using a second preference EB-2 visa.
Unlike many other forms of visa like family visas, the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) and the Department of Labor (DOL) are invested in who is given an EB-2 visa.
A rigorous certification process has been created to ensure that qualified citizens are not losing gainful employment to underqualified foreign workers. If you need help understanding this process and correctly filing for your EB-2 visa, contact Akula & Associates, P.C. and ask our Dallas employment based EB-2 visas lawyers for assistance.

What Are the EB-2 Categories?
When filing for an EB-2 visa, you must first decide which of the three subcategories best fit your unique situation.
The subcategories are:
- Advanced educational degree:
- A person who holds an advanced degree in their field, such as a doctorate or master’s degree, can apply for EB-2. The only documentation required in many advanced degree EB-2 visa filings is evidence of the degree. This can be as simple as providing a copy or the original degree obtained. In some cases, proof of an equivalent degree or a U.S. baccalaureate degree may also be acceptable.
- Exceptional skills:
- If you hold a degree related to science, art, or business that is above most others in your field, you can apply for an EB-2 visa based on your exceptional abilities. You must back your skills with proof of 10 years of full-time experience, an official practitioner’s license, a high salary for your work, professional recognitions, and membership to relevant associations.
- National interest waiver:
- There are certain people with extraordinary skills or knowledge that would be of great gain to the United States as a whole should they find work within the country. If you can prove that your new job would be a positive national interest, the EB-2 requirements could potentially be waived.
Case Types:
- EB5
- Employment-based visas

Ambreen was very helpful in our immigration process and her efforts and work helped us to achieve our most important goal, which is a future for ourselves and our child in the United States. It was a great experience to work with such a professional. We always felt that she was reachable either by e-mail or by phone. We were very impressed with her way of doing business and how she tracked and controlled every issue such that our immigration process went well. She was very responsive, constantly reviewing and checking for the documents needed to carry on the process. They handle the legal process in a professional way, and the treatment is friendly with the clients, which makes it easier and more enjoyable. They always follow up with all the steps throughout the process and kept me informed of the outcomes and further documents needed for the next steps, which made me stay one step ahead of the process to help ensure the desired outcome. Really glad to have her and Akula associates as my attorney in our successful visa applications. We look forward to working with her again for our future legal needs.- Priya

"...Highly recommended and great law firm."I just want to take a moment and personally thanks Kavitha & Akula Law Firm for helping me out and getting through my complicated I140 case. It was a impossible case which Kavitha made it possible. As usual Kavitha's expertise has been phenomenal. I am very grateful to her. Because of her experience and professionalism in filing the I-485 it didn't even trigger an RFE or an interview request, it was a direct approval. And having Ambreen and other expert counsel members are really great to work with. They are prompt and very helpful. Ambreen, is so wonderful and have dealt so patiently and promptly with me during my I485 and the efforts she have put towards my application was at par.

"Thank you all!"
The attorneys and paralegals and their assistants at Akula Law in Dallas handled my immigration case for the US efficiently, with care and with attentive responses to questions. Katrina was our lawyer for the remaining few months of our case, originally started by Daniele. Also with Erika and Christie helping us, and despite COVID-19 I finally arrived in the US in June and we couldn’t be happier. Thank you all!
