Proposed endeavor generator
Applying for the EB-2 National Interest Waiver (NIW) can feel complicated. The most important element of a strong petition is coming up with the right proposed endeavor. These are the first few sentences of the petition that tell USCIS what you plan to do in the United States and what you want to achieve. This is not a description of your role, profession, or your field. Instead, the proposed endeavor focuses on your specific future plan: your niche, actions, tools, area, or project. USCIS will evaluate it closely to see if your work will benefit the country.
Examples of sentences used in strong proposed endeavors:
- Creating AI phishing detectors to stop cyberattacks on U.S. hospital networks.
- Designing a machine-learning system that predicts power grid failures before they happen.
- Building an automated supply-chain platform to speed up perishable‐goods supply delivery nationwide.
Examples of sentences used in weak proposed endeavors (generic, profession-oriented):
- Delivering backend services for cloud software platforms.
- Working as a freelance web developer specialized in SEO and marketing.
- Providing general IT support for small businesses.
The strong examples each pinpoint a high‑priority U.S. challenge (e.g., securing patient data, preventing power outages, reducing food spoilage) and allow one to describe a specific solution and actions with measurable impact, which are later specified in the execution plan. In contrast, the weak examples merely state broad and regular job functions without identifying a critical problem or allowing for quantifiable and broad benefits.
Why does the proposed endeavor matter in EB-2 NIW petitions?
The proposed endeavor is like the thesis of your petition. USCIS uses it to assess two main points:
Prong-1: proposed endeavor has substantial merit and national importance
Note: Keep in mind that USCIS evaluates your plan and actions that you want to undertake (your proposed endeavor), not your job title or profession.
Prong-2: that the petitioner is well positioned to advance the proposed endeavor
Note: USCIS assesses whether you’re well positioned to carry out your plan and actions (your proposed endeavor). Not merely whether you’re qualified for your professional role.
To date, we’ve assisted over 260 EB‑2 NIW petitioners, either by drafting their petitions or responses to USCIS Requests for Evidence (RFEs) after they filed on their own or with their attorney. In the RFEs that we have seen, one of the most common mistakes was including a proposed endeavor that was too generic, unclear, narrowly focused on benefits to the petitioner’s employer, or lacked the potential to demonstrate national importance. That’s when we noticed that many petitioners struggled at the very start of their EB‑2 NIW petitions with poorly defined proposed endeavors. This problem prevented them later from demonstrating substantial merit, national importance, and the ability to advance their plans.
To solve this, we created a Free AI‑powered generator that instantly generates proposed endeavor options. Some are closely tied to your background, others may be more creative, so you can explore possibilities you might not have thought of on your own.

How we help you
We know how tough it can be to put together an EB‑2 NIW petition — coming up with ideas, organizing your arguments, and making your narrative clear and compelling. After helping hundreds of applicants, we’ve found that a poorly defined proposed endeavor can make it difficult to clearly address all three NIW prongs. In many situations, petitions are not approved simply because the narrative lacked structure or the arguments weren’t clearly presented
Our free AI generator focuses exclusively on that crucial opening: the first few sentences where you tell USCIS what you plan to achieve in the United States. For full-service support, including drafting your complete EB-2 NIW cover letter (endeavor execution, the three prongs and suggested list of evidence), preparing reference letters, and getting tips how to strengthen the narrative, consider our Selfpetition AI package.
Please note that Self Petition USA provides technology-driven tools to help simplify your drafting process and build your petition narrative. However, you are responsible for the final content of your petition, as we cannot verify the accuracy of your inputs or assess your legal situation.
