Frequently asked questions
- Is this different from a general economic impact study?
- The method is the same, but the report is structured around USCIS standards and written for adjudicators rather than policymakers.
- Which models do you use?
- Input-output modeling such as IMPLAN or BEA RIMS II, combined with BLS, BEA and Census data, selected to fit the endeavor.
