EB-1 Visa for Priority Workers
Employment-Based Green Card

Trusted Legal Guidance for EB-1 Immigrant Visas

If you are a top-tier professional, researcher, or executive seeking permanent residency in the United States, the EB-1 visa may be your fastest path to a green card. At Powers Immigration Law, we help individuals and employers navigate the complex EB-1 immigrant visa process with confidence and clarity.

What Is the EB-1 Visa?

The EB-1 visa is a first-preference, employment-based green card category for priority workers. It is designed for individuals who demonstrate extraordinary ability, outstanding achievement, or high-level executive and managerial experience. EB-1 applicants may qualify without the need for labor certification, and in some cases, without a job offer.

​​

There are three subcategories under the EB-1 visa:

1. EB-1A: Individuals with Extraordinary Ability

For individuals with national or international acclaim in:

  • Sciences

  • Arts

  • Education

  • Business

  • Athletics

No job offer required if you are entering the U.S. to continue work in your field.

​

2. EB-1B: Outstanding Professors and Researchers

For academic professionals with at least three years of experience in teaching or research, and international recognition for their work. Requires a job offer from a U.S. employer.

​

3. EB-1C: Multinational Executives and Managers

For individuals who have worked for a multinational company outside the U.S. in an executive or managerial role and are being transferred to a U.S. office of the same organization.
