EB-1 visas, also known as “Employment-Based First Preference,” are intended for individuals with extraordinary abilities in specific fields. There are three distinct categories within the EB-1 visa: EB-1A, EB-1B, and EB-1C, each with its own criteria.
The EB-1A visa is designed for individuals with extraordinary abilities in the sciences, arts, education, business, or athletics. It allows applicants to petition on their own and does not require a job offer or labor certification.
The EB-1B Visa is for outstanding professors and researchers who have international recognition in their academic fields. Applicants must have a job offer from a U.S. employer to qualify.
The EB-1C Visa is intended for multinational executives and managers who have worked for at least one year in the last three years in a multinational company. Requires a job offer from a U.S. employer that is a subsidiary, affiliate, or branch of a foreign company.
