What are EB-1 visas?

EB-1 visas are a category of employment-based immigration visas in the United States. They are designated for three types of individuals: individuals with extraordinary ability in their field (including science, arts, sports, and business), outstanding professors and researchers, and certain multinational managers and executives.

This type of visa does not generally require the individual to have a job offer in the US nor does it require a labor certification. It allows for the individual, their spouse, and any unmarried children under the age of 21, to immigrate to the United States or apply for your Green Card from within the US depending on your situation.

Please note, the EB-1C visa for multinational managers and executives does require a permanent job offer and sponsorship from a qualifying employer.
