Olympic Sprinter Maya Bruney Approved for Multi-Year P-1 Visa with O&P Visas

O&P Visas is proud to announce a multi-year P-1 visa success for internationally recognized sprinter Maya Bruney. With eyes set on the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics, Maya required extended access to U.S.-based competitions. Her story is a model of how strategic planning, global achievements, and a clear competitive itinerary can lead to long-term visa success.

An Athlete with Olympic Ambitions

Maya Bruney is no stranger to the international spotlight. As a European Under-20 gold medalist, she has consistently proven her speed and dedication on the track. To take her career to the next level, Maya needed reliable access to U.S. athletic events including the World Athletics Indoor Championships and Olympic qualifier meets in the United States.

What Made Her Visa Application Stand Out

🏅 Global Achievements

We presented documented proof of Maya’s major wins and international rankings, including her performance at European championships and other globally sanctioned meets. These were used to demonstrate her “extraordinary ability” under USCIS P-1 guidelines.

🗓️ Multi-Year Competition Itinerary

Maya’s application included a mapped-out schedule of key U.S. events, training camps, and competitive appearances from now through the 2028 Olympics. This pre-arranged itinerary helped justify the need for a long-term P-1 visa approval.

💼 Career-Aligned Petition

Rather than focusing only on short-term tournament entries, our team took a career-aligned approach, showing how Maya’s growth and representation in global athletics depends on consistent access to the U.S. sports system.

Supporting the Next Generation of Olympians

Our work with Maya reflects O&P Visas’ broader mission — to help Olympic-level athletes gain reliable U.S. access through strategic visa pathways. Whether it’s P-1 for competition or future O-1 eligibility, we provide long-term planning for long-term talent.

Final Word

Maya Bruney’s P-1 visa journey is a prime example of what international athletes can achieve with the right support. As the world prepares for the 2028 Olympics in Los Angeles, O&P Visas remains committed to helping top-tier talent like Maya build toward gold — both on and off the track.
