Just got my O1A visa approved (received the hardcopy in the mail). For those who have done the process of O1A > EB1A..did you apply immediately? I've heard it's more stringent. For context..I work in machine learning but don't have a lot of papers so I came in on the O1A business category. Any advice? Thanks :) 4YOE/TC:220K
Which criteria did you apply for ? To answer your question it depends on strength of O1 application, if it’s really strong (5-6+ strong criteria) it can possibly be enough for EB1A. But EB1A adjudication is much tougher , specially in last couple of years
Did Google apply for your O1?
The EB-1 green card is significantly harder to get than the O1. What I did personally is I synced with my lawyer to identify some achievements and milestones that could make my green card application stronger. Went back and made them happen within 9 months, applied to the green card and got it.
This is encouraging. May you share which lawyer did you use?
What after those milestones?
@lacroixwat, What all documents did you show to qualify for this category?

Everything seems great with this guy, except basic attraction. What to do? My friends say it’s no big deal
It would be difficult unless you have awards and enough citations.
