Reply to Which U.S. visa is a better fit for this profile — O-1 or EB-2 NIW?
This candidate is an excellent fit for an O-1 visa, not only because of their athletic achievements but also due to their media presence and other accomplishments. Since they’re not coming to the U.S. to compete in international competitions, the O-1 visa is the most appropriate option for their situation.

Reply to First Abu Dhabi World Pro invite—can I apply for a P-1?
Yes, you can absolutely file your P-1 petition now, even before competing in the Abu Dhabi World Pro. USCIS allows for pre-event filings when you have specific upcoming international competitions. This is actually a smart approach that gives you enough processing time before the event.
