How do I meet P-1 requirements for a sepaktakraw coaching job?
I’ve been offered a U.S. coaching job in sepaktakraw, but the sport isn’t listed in USCIS examples. How do I handle the consultation letter and meet P-1 rules?

Invitation letters naming you as a seeded competitor.

Bracket sheets or press releases listing top-ranked athletes.

A future-dated itinerary (weigh-ins, seminars, media).

Two regulatory items (e.g., national medals plus an expert letter).
Sponsorship contracts and a coach’s affidavit.

Can I file a P-1 for Abu Dhabi World Pro, and what documents do I need?
I’m a Brazilian jiu-jitsu black-belt invited to the Abu Dhabi World Pro. Can I file a P-1 now, and what paperwork do I need?

Reply to Got a P-1 RFE on my itinerary—how do I fix it, or should I switch to O-1?
For P-1:
-
Provide locked-in dates, opponents, broadcast info, compensation details, and federation letters.
For O-1:
-
Highlight international caps, media coverage, and salary.
-
Build an itinerary with training, exhibitions, and media work.
Decide whether to strengthen the P-1 or pivot to the more flexible O-1

Got a P-1 RFE on my itinerary—how do I fix it, or should I switch to O-1?
Last season I signed three U.S. soccer friendlies not tied to MLS. USCIS hit me with an RFE on my itinerary. How do I fix this—and is there a better visa option?

Attorney Jack replied to the discussion How do we get P-1/P-1S consultation letters without a union? in the forum General Forum a year ago
Reply to How do we get P-1/P-1S consultation letters without a union?
USCIS still requires a peer consultation, but you can:
-
Request letters from Guild of Music Supervisors or Dance/USA confirming your awards and acclaim.
-
For P-1S, get a letter explaining how lighting/projection design is integral.
-
If unions say they have no jurisdiction, document that, as USCIS may waive the requirement.
