\"Hollywood_Sign\"<\/a>O-1 AND P-1 VISAS (ALIENS OF EXTRAORDINARY ABILITY)<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

O-1 and P-1 visas represent the majority of our immigration practice. Contrary to popular belief, they are not reserved for Hollywood stars. We obtain them for artists<\/strong>, musicians<\/strong>, engineers<\/strong>, athletes<\/strong>, chefs<\/strong>, and yes, actors and film producers<\/strong> as well.<\/p>\n

These visas are set aside for those who have reached the top of their profession in the arts, sciences, education, film and television. They require a consultation from the relevant United States labor union (and in cases concerning the films and television industries, a management organization) as well as extensive documentation of the beneficiary’s achievements, including but not limited to professional reference letters<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The latter must demonstrate that\u00a0he or she has received, or was nominated for an award such as a Nobel Prize, an Academy Award, or a Grammy, or meets \u00a0at least three<\/strong>\u00a0of the following criteria<\/strong>:<\/p>\n

– Receipt of lesser nationally or internationally recognized awards or prizes for excellence in his\/her field.<\/p>\n

– Membership in associations in the field of extraordinary ability, which require outstanding achievement for membership, as judged by national or international experts.<\/p>\n

– Citations in professional publications, written by others about the individual’s work in the field. Include the title, date, and author and any translation, if necessary.<\/p>\n

– Participation on a panel or as a judge of the work of others in the same or an allied field.<\/p>\n

– Original scientific, scholarly or business contributions of major significance to the field.<\/p>\n

– Authorship of scholarly articles in the field in professional journals or major media.<\/p>\n

– Previous employment in a critical capacity for organizations and\/or establishments that have a distinguished reputation.<\/p>\n

– Evidence of high salary or other significantly high remuneration for services in relation to others in the field.<\/p>\n

Needless to say, few meet these criteria, and skillful advocacy is crucial to the success of each case.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
