The O visa is a special non-immigrant visa for individuals who have achieved extraordinary success in their field. It allows highly talented professionals, artists, athletes, and performers to live and work in the United States. At Abogada Vida, we help extraordinary individuals prove their talent and secure this prestigious visa so they can continue building their careers in the U.S.
Types of O Visas
O-1 Visa
The O-1 visa is for individuals with extraordinary ability or achievement. There are two main subcategories:
- O-1A Visa: For people with extraordinary ability in the sciences, education, business, or athletics. To qualify, applicants must show sustained national or international recognition. This can be demonstrated by winning major awards or meeting USCIS criteria such as published work, high-level achievements, or evidence of original contributions to the field.
- O-1B Visa: For individuals with extraordinary achievement in the arts, film, or television industry. This requires significant recognition in the field, such as awards, high-profile projects, or critical acclaim.
O-2 Visa
The O-2 visa is for individuals who provide essential support to an O-1 visa holder. These are often team members or assistants whose unique skills are critical to the O-1 applicant’s performance and are not easily found in the U.S.
O-3 Visa
The O-3 visa is for the spouse and children of O-1 and O-2 visa holders. Family members can live and study in the U.S., but they are not authorized to work.
