A foreign citizen may apply for an EB1 visa.  If USCIS approves the application, the foreign citizen and his or her spouse and children may receive permanent resident cards and can apply for citizenship after five years.  There are three categories of an EB1 visa in which the foreign citizen may apply:  1) Extraordinary Ability, 2) Outstanding professors and researchers, and 3) Multinational managers or executives.

 

Multinational Managers or Executives

The employer must have employed the applicant for at least one year within the last three years outside the United States.  An employee must enter the United States to continue service to this employer.  In addition, the employee must have worked as a manger or executive with the employer, an affiliate, or a subsidiary.  Only a U.S. employer can sponsor an employee under this category.  Foreign owned companies cannot sponsor a U.S. employee under this category.  The employer must have operated the business for at least one year as an affiliate, subsidiary, or same corporation that employed the person abroad.  USCIS does not limit the number of visas issued in this category.

  • Receipt of major prizes or awards for outstanding achievement
  • Membership in associations that require their members to demonstrate outstanding achievement
  • Published material in professional publications written by others about the alien’s work in the academic field
  • Participation, either on a panel or individually, as a judge of the work of others in the same or allied academic field
  • Original scientific or scholarly research contributions in the field
  • Authorship of scholarly books or articles (in scholarly journals with international circulation) in the field

The applicant’s employer must file an I140 petition to sponsor the employee.  If USCIS approves the petition, the employee and his or her spouse and children may receive permanent resident cards.  USCIS does not limit the number of visas issued in this category.
