The "Einstein Visa." A Green Card for the Top 1%.
No employer needed. No job offer required. Self-petition for a Green Card based solely on your sustained national or international acclaim.
Ideal For: Industry Leaders, Distinguished Researchers, & Global Talent.
What Is It?
The highest level of US Green Card. It allows individuals in Sciences, Arts, Education, Business, or Athletics to self-petition for residency without an employer.
Who Is This For?
This is the highest bar in US immigration. You must meet 3 out of 10 rigorous criteria, such as:
Winning nationally recognized prizes
Major awards that demonstrate your extraordinary achievement in your field.
Membership in associations
Associations that require outstanding achievement, as judged by recognized experts.
Original contributions of major significance
Scientific, scholarly, or business-related contributions that have made a lasting impact.
The Ultimate Status
No "Golden Handcuffs"
Because you self-petition, no employer owns your visa. You can launch a startup or consult freely.
Skip the Line
As a "First Preference" visa, there are generally no backlogs for most countries. You get your Green Card years faster than EB-2/EB-3 applicants.
Immediate Family Stability
Your spouse and unmarried children under 21 receive Green Cards automatically with you.
Global Mobility
Travel freely in and out of the US without the hassle of visa stamps.
