How good are chances for my O1 visa or do you recommend any other category that fits me . Currently in EU and below is my situation: 1) I am 32 and fresh PhD working in telecom sector 2) 100 citations, 20+ journal & conference articles. 3) Acted as a reviewer for 3+ articles and growing 4) Won an EU level award from a telecom giant 5) My research appeared in a Semiconductor magazine, university and local news 6) Can get recommendations from top professors of my field How good are chances if I approach a company for O1 visa. Do you recommend any other visa I should consider. I am not from India/China TC: 🥜🥜🇪🇺🇪🇺 #tech #semiconductor #apple #intel #micron #nxp #cisco #amd
No chance you will get either of them Good luck
What makes chances better?
What an amazing feedback. So detailed wow!
You can easily qualify for O1.
Pretty good but for Europeans even Eb2 will come thru before the first terms of h1b or L1 is over, you guys are born lucky 🍀
Don't have a European passport
Don’t need a passport. Your country of birth decides which queue you will be in. So long as it’s not India the timelines are fairly reasonable
O1 is sponsored, so you are bounded by one company. EB1 and EB2 NIW can be self sponsored. So you can change job however you want. And EB1 EB2 have premiums processing for I140
Isn't EB1/2 NIW too costly and more difficult?
About 10k for i140 and i485, I think getting green card fast and not bound to a company worth much much more than 10k. I have a lawyer I worked with, I approved in 1month with NIW.
I am pretty confident your profile is a shoo-in for O1 visa. I got my O1 visa 5 years ago and had similar credentials. Continue to review as many articles in diverse journals/conferences in your field of expertise as that component is a little weak right now in your profile. However this can be easily improved with a bit of effort. Make sure you get competent attorneys to work on your application. Good luck!!
Thanks! Good point on reviewer
Yeah. You’ll get the O1 for sure and most probably EB1 too. I went the same route.
Now the main issue is finding employer in this layoffs situation :D Btw, did you apply EB1 before O1?
EB1 and O1👌🏼👌🏼 Check Ballon Stoll P.C. Free consult on (646) 970-7355
You have solid chance for O1 and EB1.
EB1 is after I get O1, right?
I think you can directly apply for EB1 also. Talk to attorney and will get approved within 2-3 month after submission.
