The U.S. offers persons with exceptional skills or accomplishments
a fast track to a green card. The visa category EB-1 includes those with exceptional
skills in the U.S. national interests and persons with extraordinary skills. In a nut
shell; famous businessmen, world-class scientists and artists qualify. Scientists and
artists must demonstrate international recognition in their field. Businessmen make
difficult cases. Bill Gates and the like obviously qualify. Things get tougher when the
applicant is not a household name. The primary advantage of this category is that the
applicant can be self sponsored. There's no need to have an offer of employment in the
U.S. This is the only employment-based category that does not require a job offer. There
is also no quota wait.
Due to unfavorable press concerning approvals for chefs and poets nobody heard of, the
INS recently raised the standards. To make it simple applicants need to be on the cutting
edge of their field of endeavor. And the applicant must demonstrate that his or her
activities in the U.S. will have national as opposed to a local impact.
Those interested in this category should send us a resume for a free assessment. Please
include the resume in the body of your Email. Our fee starts at $3500.
