EB-1 Extraordinary Ability Visa overview

The EB-1 Extraordinary Ability category is for individuals who have demonstrated sustained national or international acclaim in fields such as sciences, arts, education, business, or athletics. It allows qualified applicants to apply for U.S. permanent residency, often without requiring a specific job offer or labor certification.

Under U.S. immigration law, applicants must either show a one-time major international award (for example, a Nobel Prize) or satisfy at least three out of a list of regulatory criteria.

Examples of EB-1 evidence and documentation

The firm guides clients in organizing documentation that can include, for example:

• Educational degrees and professional certificates
• Published works in academic journals or industry publications
• Records of speaking at national or international conferences
• Evidence of membership in selective professional organizations
• Documentation of awards or prizes recognizing excellence
• Articles about the applicant in major media or industry outlets
• Proof of serving as a judge, reviewer, or evaluator in the field
• Evidence of original, significant contributions in the field
• Records of leadership or critical roles in distinguished organizations
• Evidence of high compensation or commercial success, where applicable

How the firm works with EB-1 clients

• The firm has experience assisting qualified individuals and their families with EB-1 cases over many years.
• Prospective EB-1 clients are encouraged to send a detailed resume (CV) and supporting background information for an initial assessment.
• Only candidates who appear to meet minimum EB-1 criteria are typically invited to proceed further.
• The firm assists in evaluating qualifications, gathering and organizing evidence, and preparing the required filings.

Client-focused approach

For immigration clients generally, the firm aims to:

• Explain the immigration process and options in clear terms
