To obtain an EB-1 Visa as a person of extraordinary ability in the arts, an individual must meet the following requirements:
-
Evidence of extraordinary ability: The individual must provide evidence of their extraordinary ability in the arts. This can be demonstrated through acclaim and recognition in their field, such as awards, publications, critical reviews, and exhibitions.
-
National or international acclaim: The individual must show that they have achieved national or international acclaim in their field of arts. Evidence of this can include major awards or prizes, membership in prestigious organizations, and recognition from experts in the field.
-
Continuing prominence: The individual must show that they are currently working in the field of arts and continuing to demonstrate extraordinary ability. This can be demonstrated through ongoing exhibitions, performances, or critical reviews.
-
The individual must be coming to the United States to work in their field of arts.
Additionally, the individual must have a job offer from a U.S. employer in their field of arts or demonstrate that they will continue to work in their field of arts in the United States.
It is important to note that meeting these requirements does not guarantee approval of an EB-1 Visa. It is important to work with an experienced immigration attorney who can review and assess the individual's specific circumstances and provide guidance on the best course of action.
