EB-2 NIW Case Status Check

Checking your EB-2 National Interest Waiver (NIW) case status? NIW petitions are filed on Form I-140 — the same petition TrackMyI140 tracks for EB-1, standard EB-2 and EB-3 cases. There's nothing special you need to do: enter your receipt number and see the same status history, filing-block comparisons and processing-time data as any other I-140.

How TrackMyI140 covers NIW petitions

  • Status history pulled from USCIS public case-status updates
  • Comparison against other petitions in your filing block — approvals, denials and RFEs
  • Site-wide I-140 processing times (median and 80th-percentile days), covering EB-1, EB-2 — including NIW — and EB-3 filings

Frequently asked questions

Does TrackMyI140 track EB-2 NIW cases the same way as other I-140 petitions?
Yes. NIW is a sub-category of EB-2 filed on the same Form I-140, so the same receipt number, status history and filing-block data apply — no separate lookup or account type needed.
How do I check my EB-2 NIW case status online?
Go to the case lookup page and enter your I-140 receipt number (starts with IOE, SRC or LIN). It's free and doesn't require an account.
Can I see EB-2 NIW processing times specifically?
Our processing-times page reports figures across all I-140 categories (EB-1, EB-2 including NIW, and EB-3) rather than a NIW-only breakout, since USCIS's public data doesn't separate NIW from standard EB-2 at the case-status level.
Is tracking my NIW case on TrackMyI140 free?
Yes — every feature is free for every user, including NIW petitions. We run a few discreet ads to help cover hosting costs.
