What Is the EB-1A Visa?
The EB-1A visa is an employment-based immigrant visa that grants permanent resident status (green card) to individuals with extraordinary ability in fields such as science, technology, business, education, athletics, or the arts. It is intended for individuals whose achievements demonstrate sustained national or international recognition and significant impact in their field.
