In this episode of our series we are going to talk about the USCIS criterion for an O-1B that requires evidence that the artist “has either commanded a high salary or will command a high salary or other substantial remuneration for services in relation to others in the field, as evidenced by contracts or other reliable evidence”.

But what does this mean?

What do you need to show to satisfy this criterion?

And why do so many people misunderstand this criterion and get it wrong?

One criterion for the O-1B requires evidence that the artist “has received significant recognition for achievements from organizations, critics, government agencies, or other recognized experts in the field in which the alien is engaged.

Such testimonials must be in a form which clearly indicates the author's authority, expertise, and knowledge of the alien's achievements.”

But what does this mean? What do you need to show to satisfy this criterion?

And why do so many people make mistakes in this area?
