EB1B Visa Guide: Everything You Need to Know About the EB1B Visa
The EB1B visa is a powerful option for foreign professors and researchers to work as a professor or researcher for a US university or a private employer. With an EB1B visa, you can get a green card for yourself, your spouse, and your unmarried children under 21 years old.
In this guide, I’m going to discuss what you need to know about the EB1B visa.

1. What is the EB1B Visa?
The EB1B visa is an immigrant visa classification for outstanding professors and researchers. To qualify for an EB1B visa, you must show that you are internationally recognized as outstanding in a specific academic area. In addition, you must show that you have at least 3 years of experience in teaching and/or research in your academic field. Also, you must show that you will be working as a professor or researcher for a US university or institute of higher education, or that you will work as a researcher for a private employer.
The EB1B is an immigrant classification, so it allows you to get a green card for yourself, your spouse, and your children under 21 years old. The EB1B petition must be filed by your prospective US employer. The US employer is the petitioner and you are the beneficiary.
A unique advantage of the EB1B visa is that it does not require a labor certification. A labor certification is issued by the US Department of Labor and can be time consuming and tedious. Your US employer can skip this process and directly offer you a job through the EB1B visa.
Summary:
- The EB1B visa is an immigrant visa for outstanding professors and researchers.
- With an EB1B visa, you can get a green card for yourself, your spouse, and your children.
- This visa does not require an approved labor certification.
2. What are the Benefits of an EB1B Visa?
i. Immigrant Visa
- The EB1B visa is an immigrant visa classification which means that it qualifies for a green card.
- With a green card, you can travel in and out of the United States.
- Your spouse and children are also eligible for green cards, work authorization, and the ability to go to school in the United States.
ii. No Labor Certification Required
Multiple employment based immigrant visas require the US employer to get an approved labor certification. A labor certification is issued by the US Department of Labor and certifies that the employer made attempts at hiring a qualified US worker and was unable to do so. The labor certification process is time consuming, tedious, and it often discourages US employers from sponsoring foreign workers for a green card.
The EB1B visa does not require a labor certification. Instead, a US employer can just hire the foreign worker through a job offer.
iii. Lower Standard than EB1A Extraordinary Ability
The EB1B visa requires you to be internationally regarding as outstanding in your field. While this is a high standard to meet, it is a lesser standard than the EB1A visa which requires a showing of extraordinary ability.
This means that for the right candidate, it is easier to get approved for an EB1B visa than an EB1A visa.
3. What are the EB1B Visa Requirements?
To qualify for an EB1B visa, there are 3 main requirements:
- You must be internationally recognized as being outstanding in an academic field
- You must have at least 3 years of experience teaching and/or doing research in your academic field
- You must have a US job offer to work in a teaching position or as a researcher.
i. You must be internationally recognized as being outstanding in an academic field
To qualify for an EB1B visa, you must prove that you are internationally recognized as being outstanding in your academic field.
To prove that you are internationally recognized as outstanding, you must satisfy at least 2 of the following 6 evidentiary criteria:
- You have received major prizes or awards for outstanding achievement in your academic field
- You are a member of associations within your academic field which require outstanding achievement to be a member
- There is published material written by others, in professional publications, about your work in the academic field
- You have participated, as an individual or on a panel, as a judge of the work of others in your academic field or in an allied academic field
- You have original scientific or scholarly research contributions in your field
- You have authored scholarly books or articles in scholarly journals in your academic field
Special Note: If one of the criteria listed above does not readily apply to the evidence you intend to submit, you may submit comparable evidence to show your eligibility for an EB1B visa.
Additional Information on Major Prizes and Awards for Outstanding Achievement in Your Field
- The award does not have to be an international award, but it should not be a local or regional award. It should at least be a nationally recognized award.
- Awards received while you are a student will typically not qualify unless the award was outstanding compared to the awards typically granted in academia.
Additional Information on Published Material Written by Others, in Professional Publications, About Your Work in the Academic Field
- What is written should be about your work and should demonstrate that you are internationally recognized as outstanding in your field.
- To determine whether the published material is about your work, USCIS will analyze the length and the content of the material. If your work is barely mentioned, it is likely that this will not qualify.
ii. You must have at least 3 years of experience teaching and/or doing research in your academic field
To qualify for an EB1B visa, you must have at least 3 years of experience teaching and/or doing research in your academic field.
If you are relying on time spent teaching while you were working on your advanced degree, then you must show that you earned the degree and that you had full responsibility for the class that was taught.
If you are relying on time spent conducting research while you were working on your advanced degree, then you must show that you earned the degree and that the research conduced toward your degree was recognized within your academic field as outstanding [Code of Federal Regulations Section 204.5].
iii. You must have a US job offer to work in a teaching position or as a researcher.
To qualify for an EB1B visa, you must have a US job offer to work in either a teaching position or as a permanent researcher.
More specifically, you must have a job offer to work in a teaching position or as a permanent researcher, within your academic field, for a US university or institution for higher learning. Alternatively, you must have a job offer to work as a permanent researcher, within your academic field, for a private employer.
To simplify this requirement, I've broken it down into 3 separate options.
There are 3 ways to satisfy this requirement:
a. A job offer from a university or institute of higher education as a teacher
In this scenario, the position must be a tenured or a tenure-track position. To determine whether the position is a tenured or tenure-track position, USCIS will analyze whether you have a reasonable expectation of long-term employment with the university. Positions as an adjunct professor or as a temporary professor will not qualify.
b. A job offer from a university or institute of higher education as a researcher
Here, the position must be to conduct research in your academic field. In addition, the research position must be permanent. A permanent position is one that is for an indefinite or unlimited duration and where as the employee, you would have an expectation of continued employment absent good cause for termination [Code of Federal Regulations Section 204.5].
c. A job offer from a private employer as a researcher
- In this scenario, the position must be to conduct research in your academic field with a department, division, or institute of a private employer.
- The position must be permanent (as defined above).
- The department, division, or institute of the private employer that will be employing you must already employ at least 3 other people as full time researchers.
- The department, division, or institute of the private employer must have achieved documented accomplishments in the academic field.
4. What Documents are Needed to Apply for an EB1B Visa?
The documents you submit with your EB1B petition are highly important to getting your petition approved. The specific documents you should include will depend on your particular achievements, qualifications, and credentials.
With that disclaimer, here’s a list of some of the documents you should expect to include:
i. Awards
If you have awards for outstanding achievement in your field, you should include them as evidence of your recognition as being outstanding in your field.
You should include that actual award, evidence about the significance of the award, and information regarding the criteria by which people are selected to receive the award.
ii. Evidence of Membership in Associations
If you are a member of an association within your field, you should include an ID card or letter from the association demonstrating your membership.
You should also include a letter from the association showing the criteria for being selected as a member.
iii. Letter From Former Employer
This letter should explain that you have the required work experience as a researcher or teacher. The letter should explain your job duties. It should be on official letterhead and signed by an authorized representative of the employer.
iv. Job Offer From US Employer
The job offer from your US employer must be in writing. Oral offers of employment will not qualify.
v. Letters of Endorsement
One of the most valuable components in an EB1B visa petition are letters of endorsement from experts in your field. These letters can help to explain your impact and significance in your field.
Letters of endorsement should be backed up with concrete evidence. In addition, these letters should ideally be from people you are not closely acquainted with.
vi. Copy of passport
vii. Resume
5. What is the Process of Getting an EB1B Visa?
Here’s a simplified breakdown of the EB1B visa process:
Step 1. Hire an immigration lawyer
Your immigration lawyer will first determine whether or not EB1B is the best option for you. Assuming it is, your immigration lawyer will analyze your credentials and prepare a detailed list of documents for you to provide them.
Step 2. Filing Form I-140
The Form I-140 is the initial form that you must file with USCIS. This form is also called the Immigrant Petition for Alien Worker. Your immigration lawyer will file this form on your behalf and include all of the supporting documents such as your awards and letters of endorsement.
Step 3. Adjustment of Status or Visa Processing
There are 2 options for step 3: 1. Adjustment of status or 2. visa processing.
An adjustment of status is available to people who are lawfully present in the United States in some non-immigrant status. The adjustment of status quite literally means adjusting from a non-immigrant status to immigrant status. In order to do this, your immigration lawyer will file a Form I-485 on your behalf. Once approved, you become a lawful permanent resident. The entire adjustment of status process takes place in the United States.
Visa processing is the process of apply for a visa at a foreign consulate abroad. In order to do this, you file a DS-260, Immigrant Visa Application with the US consulate (usually of your home country). You will then schedule a visa interview. Upon completion of the interview, if successful, you will be issued an EB1B visa.
6. How Does USCIS Decide Whether You Are Outstanding in Your Field?
USCIS takes a 2-step approach when deciding whether You Are Internationally Recognized as Outstanding in Your Field:
- Step 1: Evidentiary Threshold
- Step 2: Final Merits Determination
Step 1: Evidentiary Threshold
During this step, USCIS is determining whether you actually have sufficient evidence to satisfy at least 2 of the 6 evidentiary criteria listed above (awards, membership in associations, etc.). The quality and the caliber of the evidence is not the primary focus of this step. If you do not satisfy at least 2 of the criteria, your petition will be denied.
Step 2: Final Merits Determination
During this step, USCIS is critically analyzing the totality of the evidence submitted to see whether you have are at a level to be considered outstanding in your field. At this stage is where the quality and caliber of your evidence is primarily assessed.
Even if you satisfy 2 of the 6 evidentiary criteria, you still might not pass the final merits determination if the evidence you submit is not strong enough.
7. Conclusion
You should now have a much better understanding of the EB1B visa. As you can see, this is a great option for researchers and professors to obtain a green card and to continue to work as researchers/professors in the United States.
Your chances of approval for this visa are very closely tied to the evidence you submit and the way your case is prepared and explained. It is very important to work with an immigration lawyer throughout this process.

I am delighted with the result and the expediency with which Asoori Law handled our application.We now have... approval of our visas and couldn't be happier. One of the stand out aspects of dealing with Ashoori was the fact that I could tel or email Michael at any-time and would always receive a prompt response by return email. This personal connection with the company during the process made me feel I was dealing with a friend and that I could reach out to at any time I had a question, rather than being treated as another client.

I posting this for my wife in China VPN not workingI am so impressed by Mr. Michael Ashoori and will not hesitate to recommend him to you as one of the best immigration attorneys!!! For my case, I had an urgent timeline to apply for a re-entry... permit. To make it more complicated, I had multiple international travel plans during the application period. I reached out to quite a few attorneys for assistances. They either turned me down directly due to the time constrain or did not reply at all. On the contrary, Michael assured the feasibility of such an application during the first teleconference. Just as what he told me, all worked out perfectly under his coordination. To me, the following sets Mr. Michael Ashoori and his team apart from most of his peers:1) He is not only knowledge of the immigration laws and regulations but also highly familiar of the immigration authorities’ operation details. This is extremely critical to an urgent case since every step matters.2) He has the right AI system setup to monitor the daily workflows and handle the repetition workloads. Therefore, his team can focus on the key variables and client interactions efficiently.3) His fee is very reasonable and competitive.4) He cares about his clients as a friend. That is precious in a business world. You are in good hands if you pick Mr. Michael Ashoori and his team!read more

Michael and his team deserve more than a five star rating. I hired Mike already based on a recommendation from a friend of mine, who also requested his services. My friend gave him five star as well, and this could simply not be different.Since my... first contact with Michael, I've perceived his solid ethical principles, responsive professionalism and personal attention to all details in US immigration complex process. In my case, he was key for me to obtain I-131 permits for three Green Cards - and the documents were shipped after just six weeks after the process initiation. In another process, he has been immediately responsive to replace Green Cards. And all my contacts were online - which is a testimony of his great online reputation.If you are looking for US Immigration lawyer assistance for true delivery, great value and avoid risks and potential problems, the answer is Michael Ashoori Law, with his fantastic team, that really and personally takes care of your immigration needs.JCread more

Eman has been the most supportive and communicative attorney for my Green Card application. I did a lot of research on who to work with and he was so knowledgeable, took the time to build personal rapport with me and explained everything so clearly.... I felt at ease throughout what is a stressful time. The process was incredibly smooth, got my Green Card in just 3 months. He was honest and transparent, a breath of fresh air! He made himself available 24/7 on text and email, and Stefany in the office was also a huge support in preparing the correct documentation. Eman was even able to educate the USCIS officer in my interview! Honestly, can’t praise him enough. And did it all for a very fair price!

At first I was very skeptical because everything was done online. After calling Michael and having a conversation with him I felt more comfortable going forward with the process. Michael and his team were very responsive via email and telephone and... answered every question me or my wife would have. I would definitely recommend using his services because everything could be done from the comfort of your house and not be overcharged by other lawyers where you would have to physically go to their office and pay $100 just for a consultation fee. Thanks to Michael and his team, my wife and I were able to go to Japan after the fingerprint appointment and he is going to mail us the Re-Entry permit to Japan.Thanks for the hard work, we greatly appreciate you and your team!

Michael and team were very responsive and thorough over email on all the queries that I asked throughout the process. I would highly recommend them.read more

Worked with Michael Ashoori, and I am super grateful for his services! He was very patient at the beginning with my questions (first time leaving the U.S. for a long period of time) regarding the process details and the timeline. I found Michael... understands all the nuances of the process and very thorough with his advice. I received my travel document within 5 months, as expected, most of the time we were just waiting for feedback from USCIS. The detailed timeline is provided down below. I would recommend Michael's service (from a re-entry permit applicant point of view):1) Michael is a great professional. He made the entire process very straightforward and easy for me. By the way, his blogis a perfect source of information about the importance of the re-entry permit for the U.S. residents, the whole process of getting the travel document and processing times.2) Michael keeps me updated. Getting re-entry permit is a multi-stage process and every step in it is equally important and requires some coordination. Michael kept me informed and provided the full information on how to prepare for each step.3) Michael responds to my queries in a timely manner.On multiple occasions I raised questions about my process status, message received and how to behave during the border crossing. Michael makes sure that my queries are answered in a timely manner and I can't stress how important this is… I mean people always say "oh, I will get back to you on that" but most of the time they don’t… Well, at least in my experience. At the end of the day, I wanted my re-entry permit be approved and great customer care service and Michael Ashoori has met/exceeded my expectations. Great work Michael! I would highly recommend Michael and his law firm if you have any immigration question that needs to be resolved! PS My process timeline for those who interested:- Forms sent over to Michael 5/13/2019 and submitted to USCIS 5/14/2019 - Appointment for biometrics received 6/11/2019 and passed 6/20/2019- Travel document approved 9/29/2019 and received the document via FedEx 10/3/2019read more

Michael is a professional and dependable Lawyer. He knows what to do. I found him online. He was very patient with answering all my questions. He used to reply to my emails quickly and even on weekends. Before I got in touch with Michael, I called... many immigration lawyers but they made things complicated and difficult. I was confused but Michael made the process clear and easy to understand. I'm glad I have chosen Michael's service. It's very easy to work with him. My family was very happy because they were able to attend the biometric appointment within 5 weeks and before their flight back to Morocco as Mikael promised. I would highly recommend this service for other people. Definitely I will use his service again!read more

I sought out Michael online and thought I was taking a chance with a unknown law firm. To my pleasant surprise, Michael offered a quick intro call to introduce his services and the re=entry permit application process. He was open and honest and was... very transparent with his service fees. I simply filled out an application and had Michael submit it on my behalf.. The scheduled biometric appointment went smoothly and 3 months later my re-entry permit was approved. I would highly recommend Michael for this service as it was hassle free and cost effective vs trying to do it on your own.read more

I had a great experience working with Michael. Eventually I found his details via google search and after having a quick phone call, I decided to go ahead with him in order to apply for my parents reentry permit applications. Working with him was... pretty straight forward and easy going. I live in New jersey and he is based of California, but I never felt that distance was an issue. I pretty much sent all the required documents via email and/or post. I could call/message him if I had any doubts and he would get back to me immediately. Our process was successful and eventually we did receive the Reentry permits in the time line that he had given. I would recommend his services to anyone who wants to apply for Reentry permits or any other immigration services.read more

“I hired Michael Ashoori to help my mother submit a re-entry permit form so that she could stay in Turkey for an extended duration. This process can be confusing and Michael made the process so much easier. What started out as a routine submittal... for which we were charged a very reasonable amount turned out to be much more involved due to our specific circumstances. Michael and his firm bent over backwards to resolve issues until we finally got our re- entry permit without any additional charges. I would recommend Michael and his firm to anyone.”read more

I stumbled upon Michael Ashoori's law firm (and its online presence) via a google search. Some finds are lucky finds. Michael attends to each communication personally - he is prompt, professional and clear. All expectations, timelines, costs are... spelled out ahead of time. He filed my Reentry Permit in a thorough and professional manner - and he was exacting about details like the resolution of a scanned document, say. I saw the form he filled out on my behalf and I realized he put in just the right amount of information required - I had given him a slightly more (emotional) verbiage to utilize, if needed. He kept me updated about the progress of the filing and in the end sent me a cheery email I was waiting for announcing the USCIS approval of my filing. He also will ship the approved document to wherever in the world you may be, which is a big help. Highly recommended, just for sheer accessibility and affability - and efficiency!

Mr. Michael Ashoori represented me to apply re-entry visa. It was my first time to look for a lawyer on the internet and he happens to be at a different time zone.The reason why I did that because my local lawyer who used to represent me in the... past didn’t response to my email for more than 2 weeks. After several trials, I was forced to look for someone to help me.Honestly, I was a bit worried at the beginning. But after sending the first email request to Mr. Michael, I got a phone call and an email from him in less than 12 hours. After that, every time when I had a question, Michael always have a response in 24 hours. And all my questions always get answered immediately. I have never needed to ask the same question twice before getting an answer from him.After the biometric appointment, that waiting period felt like forever. But because of Michael’s professionalism, I had a peace of mind. I know that once he finds out the status, he will let me know right away.I highly recommend if anyone needs any professional help in immigration, Mr. Michael Ashoori is the person to go to.As always, Michael, thank you very much for your help.read more

I was researching about how to complete an I131 travel document for my wife online and hands down the best explanation on how to do so was written by Michael Ashoori. I felt my case wasn’t clear-cut and I didn’t want to take any chances doing it... myself so I reached out to Michael and to my surprise he wrote me back that same day. I also thought his price was reasonable, especially in comparison to other lawyers in my area. He has always answered my emails quickly and most importantly my wife’s travel document was approved just as he said it would be in the timeframe he presented to us in he beginning.

Just in one day ! My wife and two young kids , a boy 2 years and a girl 4 year old currently live in Canada I need to spend sometime with them as my boy was sick for long time getting cold badly and I needed to be with for longer time so I needed the reentry permit and hired Mr. Ashoori. Mr. Ashoori had given me a timeline on how the process would take place , and 100% correct he was! I did get my reentry permit last week and every thing happened just as he had explained.

If you want a world-class, take-you-by-the-hand service (and results), search no more…And let me explain real quick the 3 reasons why I say this about Ashoori Law:1. Clarity. At first, I wasn’t even sure if the service was the right fit for me.... Heck, I didn’t even have the slightest idea of how the whole Visa process worked… NOT a problem.Michael had me on a call where he took his time to explain in detail everything I needed to know about how the process worked, my eligibility for the Visa, and every other question I had that I threw at him.BIG Bonus for me: there were some questions Michael didn’t have the answer to right there and then and he simply took some time to research and got back to me later on with the answers… instead of just coming up with BS (like some do).2. Communication. NEVER did I have a single call or email I didn’t receive a response to in less than 24 hours.You don’t want someone you have to be constantly chasing working on your case, do you?I can’t even imagine how frustrating that would be…With Michael, communication was ALWAYS clear and fast, just as you would expect from an expert.3. Certainty. There was absolutely no point during the process where I felt an ounce of doubt about whether I was doing the right thing or not.You know those buying decisions you start regretting the second after the purchase is made? Know that feeling?Well, this is not one of them.Michael and his team are so knowledgeable in their field that they have fool-proof systems in place that help you complete your paperwork and applications quickly and with ease.Since our first interaction, I felt I was dealing with people who knew their stuff.And those are the reasons why I feel comfortable recommending Ashoori Law…They took care of me as a mother takes care of her newborn.Thank you, Michael!read more

It called my attention that in its official website it was posted important, comprehensive information on different... matters, and it invites customers to ask for direct responses. I decided to write a couple of emails about my personal situation, immediately responded by Michael at no cost. After having received those responses, I asked Michael for a quotation of legal services, which I compared to three more. In the end, I decided to hire Michael because his offer inspired me to trust and it was very competitive, and I definitely made the right choice. Michael was quite diligent when analyzing my case, filed the petition quickly and kept me posted about its evolution. My case was resolved favorably! That is why I have no hesitation in recommending Michael´ services for US Immigration Law. Maria Misleread more

After being fed up with the lack of expertise and lack of ease of communication at the previous law office I was handling my case, I have come to know Michael when I googled "Best Immigration Law in my area". I can guarantee you, Google wasn't... misleading this time. Michael gave me a definite answer to my question and assured me that my case is possible, a question where previously I wasn't able to get an answer more than a "Maybe". And he delivered what he assured me. I am sure many lawyers also deliver, however, I am also sure that no lawyer is as easily accessible as Michael. I have never seen a lawyer who promptly responds to client messages at 11:30 pm. This guy is a pioneer in a Client-Attorney communication style. He re-invented the way how easily clients can call, text, email, and easily reach out their lawyer at any time to get a quick response. A business style other law firms should encourage applying.read more

Our whole relation with Michael was over the phone but we NEVER felt at-distance due to his professional communication and collaboration skills. We were really impressed with his subject-related knowledge and his exceptional approach.At very 1st engagement with him over the phone,he walked us step-by-step through the standard process for E2 submission and answered all of our questions till our full satisfaction. Upon his analysis of our case, he customized his approach as per our legal situation and reccommended us the best fit-solution for our investment goals. He made the preparation of business/invetment documentation super-easy for me by providing the customized and easy-to-use templates. Him and his team frequently reviewed our documents and provided professional assistance to make appropriate enhancments as needed per USCIS standards. I have never experienced anyone as prompt professional towards his clients as he was. No matter, what time (business/after-business hours) I called him, received immediate & welcoming response.
