Continue Building Your Career in the United States
The O-1 visa allows individuals with extraordinary ability or achievement to work in the United States in their area of expertise.
If you have built a strong record of accomplishments and recognition in your field, the O-1 may provide a flexible way to continue your career and professional work in the United States.
Atlas Roots Law helps you evaluate your qualifications, develop a strategy around your strongest achievements, and prepare a well-supported O-1 petition.
The O-1 visa may be an option for accomplished individuals in fields such as:
There are two primary O-1 classifications:
For individuals with extraordinary ability in the sciences, education, business, or athletics.
For individuals with extraordinary ability in the arts or extraordinary achievement in the motion picture or television industry.
In general, O-1 eligibility requires sustained national or international acclaim and temporary work in the United States in the area of extraordinary ability or achievement.
In some cases, comparable evidence may be used when the listed criteria do not readily apply to the occupation.
