What is the O-1 Visa?

The O-1 visa is a U.S. work authorization for individuals with extraordinary ability or achievement โ€” in any field. Unlike the H-1B, there is no lottery, no annual cap, and no employer sponsorship required.

If you are among the best in what you do โ€” whether in science, business, finance, the arts, athletics, media, or the digital economy โ€” there is a path to working in the United States.

O-1A vs O-1B

O-1A covers extraordinary ability in science, education, business, or athletics. O-1B covers extraordinary achievement in the arts, motion picture, or television. Digital creators, influencers, streamers, and independent professionals may qualify under either category depending on their body of work.
