Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, USA – August 21, 2026 – USA Immigration Company, a U.S.-based immigration services provider specializing in EB-1A Extraordinary Ability and EB-2 National Interest Waiver (NIW) green card petitions, is warning self-petitioners about the risks of relying on artificial intelligence to prepare complex immigration cases.
AI has made it easier to generate lengthy petition letters, proposed endeavors and legal-style arguments within minutes. But USA Immigration Company cautions that polished writing is not a substitute for immigration strategy, credible supporting evidence and a petition specifically developed around USCIS requirements.
The consequences may now be greater.
On August 5, 2026, U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services announced updated guidance restoring officers’ full discretion to deny certain benefit requests without first issuing a Request for Evidence (RFE) or Notice of Intent to Deny (NOID). The policy applies to requests pending or filed on or after August 5, unless otherwise specified.
For EB-1A and EB-2 NIW self-petitioners, USA Immigration Company believes the message is clear: applicants should not assume USCIS will give them another opportunity to fix an incomplete or insufficient filing.
“People sometimes use AI because they are trying to avoid thousands of dollars in attorney fees,” said a spokesperson for USA Immigration Company. “But saving money on preparation can become very expensive if the petition results in an RFE, NOID or denial. Under the new USCIS guidance, applicants also cannot assume they will receive an RFE before a decision is made.”
Why AI-Generated Petitions Can Be Risky
EB-1A Extraordinary Ability and EB-2 National Interest Waiver petitions require much more than persuasive writing. Applicants must establish eligibility through evidence and connect that evidence to the applicable immigration requirements.
Generative AI may overstate accomplishments, apply criteria too broadly, repeat arguments, misunderstand evidence or create proposed endeavors that sound impressive but are not adequately supported by the applicant’s background.
AI also cannot independently verify whether submitted documentation actually proves each claim.
“A 300-page AI-generated petition can still be weak,” the spokesperson said. “USCIS is not approving a case because it sounds sophisticated. The evidence has to establish eligibility.”
An Alternative to Attorney Fees
USA Immigration Company provides EB-1A and EB-2 NIW petition preparation and case-development services for professionals, entrepreneurs, executives, researchers, academics, business owners and other qualified individuals in the United States and internationally.
For applicants concerned about attorney fees, the company offers professional petition preparation at approximately half the cost commonly associated with attorney representation, depending on the case and services required.
The company’s approach focuses on individualized case strategy, evidence development, professional research, petition organization and comprehensive presentation rather than relying on standardized AI-generated petitions.
RFE, NOID, Denial, Motion and Appeal Assistance
For applicants who have already filed and received an RFE or NOID, USA Immigration
Company provides RFE response and NOID response services for EB-1A and EB-2 NIW cases.
The company reviews the original petition, USCIS notice and supporting evidence to determine why USCIS was not persuaded and what deficiencies must be addressed.
USA Immigration Company also assists with previously denied immigration petitions, including case review, motions and administrative appeals when available, as well as preparation of stronger new petitions when appropriate.
“A denial can become part of an applicant’s immigration history,” the spokesperson said. “The better approach is to build the strongest possible case before filing rather than assuming deficiencies can be corrected later.”
Professional Strategy in the Age of AI
USA Immigration Company believes AI can be useful when used as a tool by experienced professionals, but applicants should be cautious about allowing AI to determine eligibility, select strategy and construct an entire immigration case.
With USCIS emphasizing complete filings and restoring broader officer discretion to deny without first issuing an RFE or NOID, professional case development may be more important than ever.
