O-1 / P-1 - FOR ALIENS OF EXTRAORDINARY ABILITY


The Law Office of Brian T. O’Neill can counsel you through the process of assisting individuals of extraordinary ability or exceptional ability who are seeking temporary entry through US employers, for a project, event, performance, etc., in the sciences, arts, education, business or athletics.

O-1/P-1 Visas

The O-1/P-1 temporary nonimmigrant visa is for foreign national who possess extraordinary ability and/or demonstrated international achievement and recognition, in the sciences, arts, education, business or athletics, or who have demonstrated a record of extraordinary achievement in the motion picture or television industry and have been recognized nationally or internationally for such achievements.

The O-1/P-1 require employer sponsorship – a foreign national cannot self sponsor or self petition for an O-1 or P-1 Non-immigrant visa on his/her own behalf.

Typically the O-1/P-1 will be admitted to the USA for the length of the project, performance, event, etc., as described in the petition, for a period of up to three years. Once in the USA, an employer/employee may apply to extend status in one year increments.

The Law office of Brian T O’Neill can provide the tools you need to make the most informed decisions about applying for the O-1/P-1 visas. Find out how the process works, what timing and considerations are involved, what forms and supporting exhibits must be submitted before submitting an O-1/P-1 visa package.

 What Our Clients Say

"I am counsel for a rapid growth software company that was recently acquired by Google. During periods of high employee growth, my company hired multiple foreign nationals and I needed a firm that was able to process visa & green card applications with very short notice. I retained Brian O'Neill, Jr. in 2001 based on a recommendation from a colleague. I was immediately impressed with how the firm handled my matters and since 2001 I have exclusively used them for immigration matters. Brian has processed countless visa and green card applications with a 100% success rate. I have since referred friends and colleagues to Brian O'Neill, Jr. and Brian O'Neill, Sr. and I have no hesitation in providing a testimonial as they are experts in immigration related matters."
