I still have a long paragraph to describe each reference in the RLs. It
is needed to describe their credentials to present them as experts to
evaluate us and our work. "A Cornell AP" alone may not be convincing

By toning down, I mean that when some references have thousands of

yes, I did. But as in all cases, letterhead makes the letter look nice, but
it's not a must. You can have a couple letters that don't use a letterhead,
if it's really impossible to get one.
both are okay. You can let the editor decide, and you only request him to
print it on a letter-head.
吗?
that's fine, or USCIS, or anything that you may use in a reference letter.
This review verification letter is not a RL, but somebody may put it
together with RLs, and I put it in the review section. |

r*****d 发帖数: 727 | 4 My laywer suggests me to prepare NIW and Eb1a at the same time. Try Eb1a at
first, if it fails, move to NIW.
So I prepared two recommendation letters for each recommenders.
My question is , when I write to them asking for recommendation, do I have
to mention that I will need two different RLs? Is this make them less
willing to write the letter?
Thanks so much |

吹, 结果律师也是枪哥的那位一样, 问答题一堆, 我这才想起来像大家请教, 看来
还得一切从头自己来过, 不能太指望律师, 我要重新包装一下我的RLs。
太谢谢大家。 祝枪哥早日批准, 再给大家发包子, 不过看枪哥包子也不多了。 所以
一定要批啊。 |

challenged your other evidence. When you response, do not mention anything
weak , e.g. they know u only by looking at your resume. No, never ever made
such kind of statement. The Rl should state that you have been international

did the same thing but goes to the same IO (EB1A approved and NIW denied at
the same day).
same IO, you'd better submit them separately with a gap of 7-10 days. |
