No labor certification is required. No job offer or permanent position is needed. Self-petition is allowed. The EB-1A immigrant visas are current for most countries.
Understanding the EB1 Visa and Its Advantages
The EB1 Visa, also known as the EB1A Green Card for Aliens of Extraordinary Ability, is one of the most sought-after U.S. employment-based immigrant visas. It is designed for individuals who have demonstrated extraordinary ability in their field—whether in science, arts, education, business, or athletics.
What makes the EB1 Visa especially attractive is its flexibility and efficiency. Unlike many other employment-based categories, no labor certification is required, and no permanent job offer or position is necessary. Applicants can self-petition, which means you don’t need employer sponsorship to qualify. Moreover, EB-1A immigrant visas are current for most countries, meaning faster processing and shorter waiting times.
At Greencardlink, our team of experienced EB1 Lawyer specializes in helping extraordinary professionals navigate this prestigious visa category with confidence.
EB1 Requirements – Who Qualifies for the EB1A Visa?
To qualify for an EB1 Visa, you must meet the EB1A requirements set by U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS). You must show evidence of extraordinary ability through sustained national or international acclaim.
Applicants must provide proof of at least three of the following:
-
Receipt of national or international awards for excellence.
-
Membership in associations that require outstanding achievement.
-
Published material about your work in professional or major trade publications.
-
Participation as a judge of others’ work in your field.
-
Original contributions of major significance in your industry.
-
Authorship of scholarly articles or publications.
-
Display of your work at exhibitions or showcases.
-
Leading or critical role in distinguished organizations.
-
High salary or other significantly high remuneration compared to others in your field.
-
Commercial success in the performing arts.
Alternatively, you can demonstrate one-time achievement, such as an internationally recognized award (e.g., Olympic medal, Pulitzer Prize, or Academy Award).
At Greencardlink, our EB1 lawyers evaluate your profile, collect strong supporting evidence, and craft a persuasive case that meets every EB1 requirement.
